Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Looking north at the granite obelisk of the 3rd Infantry Division Monument in Section 46 of Arlington National Cemetery in Arlington, Virginia, in the United States. President George H.W. Bush signed legislation on September 29, 1988, approving the establishment of a memorial to the 3rd Infantry Division on the grounds of Arlington National Cemetery. The nine-ton grey granite obelisk, set about 15 feet back from the roadside, is inscribed with a dedication to the unit. A marker consisting of a bronze plaque attached to a grey granite stone sits by the walkway, and lists battles fought by the 3rd Infantry. The marker contains two typographical errors: It says "WW 1" (a numeral one, rather than a Roman numeral one), and "WW11" (two numeral ones, rather than two Roman numeral ones). The monument was dedicated on August 15, 1990.
