That is correct. I would say two things in that regard, if I could, Mr. Chair.
One is that, when the monument was announced in 2014, many families of the fallen were there for that announcement. We were extremely touched. I wasn't there, but I've heard from and spoken to Afghanistan veterans who were there that evening, and the impact on them, because of the family members who were there, was tremendous.
In June, when we announced the design, there were also family members who had lost brothers, sons and daughters in Afghanistan.
