    I like the "Father Kicking Son's Ass" Memorial near the McKinley Monument in Canton.

    Living in DC, I am surrounded by all the good ones. My favorite is Korea. But, especially at night and in the snow. If you ever get a chance to see it then, it is amazing and literally it feels like you are there.

    My second favorite is next to it, the DC World War I monument, a little off to the side. Simple, yet historic.

    The Washington Monument is definitely the most impressionable. I was pretty much able to talk it into doing whatever I wanted.

    WWII monument is a joke. Absolutely horrible IMO.

    All the monuments in DC have their own unique features that I like, but my favorite is the Korean War Memorial. My father was a marine in this conflict, so this memorial holds a special significance for me. I also like Arlington, if you consider it a memorial.

    I have been to quite a few. The ones that really stand out to me is the arch, grand canyon, devils tower, hells canyon, and the red wood national forest. Memorials would have to be Vietnam since my father served there. Gettysburg was pretty good too.
