Just learned that there is a bit of "engraved in" grafitti on the WWII memorial in Washington, D.C.

Just a little simple drawing engraved into the stonework, darkened in with whatever coloring agent they used for the rest of the memorial.

Its a line drawing of a bald guy with a big nose, looking over a wall. The inscription reads "KILROY WAS HERE"


Who said Uncle Sam had no sense of humor?

I learned how to draw Kilroy when I was six years old. Kilroy was everywhere during WWII.

Yep, but I didn't learn to draw him until the Korean War broke out.

That's pretty cool.
