A quote from General Douglas Macarthur at the close of the Second World War. It reads "The guns are silent. A great tragedy, a great victory has been won. The skies rain death - the seas bear only commerce - men everywhere walk upright in the sunlight. The entire world is quietly at peace."Galleries:1940 to 1945: World War Two, United States Military, World War II MemorialKeywords:district of columbia, douglas macarthur, inscription, macarthur, memorial, national mall, national world war two memorial, quote, washington dc, world war two, ww2Photo Location: National World War Two Memorial, Washington, DCPhotographer: Chad CullenDate of Photo: 06/25/2009Device Make: CanonDevice Model: Canon EOS 5DExposure Time: 1/250F Number: 9/1Original Dimensions: 4264×2248Picture Orientation: LandscapeGPS Coordinates: 38°53'21.73"N 77°2'25.79"WPicture Number: 8026
