KCMO Councilman Nathan Willett Considers Korean War Memorial Future

Reading betwixt the lines . . . It seems like this move is a forgone conclusion without any consultation of voters. 

However . . . It's nice the councilman is concerned with preserving this important part of American history.

Here's the word . . .  

KC Councilman Nathan Willett: The Korean War Memorial at Washington Square Park

"Kansas City's consideration of a new home for the Kansas City Royals must not come at the expense of honoring those who served. The Korean War Memorial at Washington Square Park stands as a vital tribute to those who fought in the Korean War, often called the "Forgotten War." If relocation is necessary, it must remain in a highly visible, dignified, and scenic setting in our region.

This is not simply about moving a monument - it is about preserving our community's commitment to remembrance. The new location should invite reflection, educate future generations, and remain accessible. As development at the park is considered, we must reaffirm our values. Honoring our veterans is not optional - it is a lasting obligation."

-Councilman Nathan Willett
