(MINI) The Controversy of the Korean War Memorial - a podcast by DC by Foot

For this week's Minisode, we lost Canden but have Dan to explain the latest controversy swirling around the new addition to the Korean War Memorial on the Mall in Washington, DC. $22 million dollars to make an addition to add all the names of those lost in the war, making it more like the Vietnam Veterans' War Memorial nearby.  What could be wrong with that?  Lots!
