FDR D-Day Prayer Plaque Dedication at the World War II Memorial's Circle of Rememberance

Join us as we dedicate the newest addition to the World War II Memorial: FDR’s D-Day Prayer Plaque in the Memorial’s newly restored Circle of Remembrance.

The June 6th dedication of the FDR D-Day Prayer Plaque and the newly restored Circle of Remembrance will feature remarks by former Senator Rob Portman and a keynote address by Elliott “Toby” Roosevelt III, the great-grandson of Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt.

As part of the ceremony, WWII veterans and other special guests will present wreaths in memory of the 9,000 Allied soldiers killed or wounded during the invasion.

The ceremony is open to the public; but, registration is required.
