gehry s plan for the proposed memorial to dwight d. eisenhower. for me, ike is still a living memory. his role is supreme commander of the allied forces which freed europe from a great evil and two terms as president of the united states are events through which i lived. i hate to say this, mr. chairman. but i was actually walking and not crawling at that time. but what about our rising generations who lacked this firsthand historical memory? what will they know if anything about this great american? to teach them not only about ike and his deeds, but to give them a sense of his greatness and the debt we owe him is the task of any monument worthy of bearing his name. this mission is admirably summarized in the 1999 law passed by congress ordering that, quote, an appropriate memorial to dwight d. eisenhower should be created to perpetuate his memory and his contributions to the united states, unquote. such a monument should, therefore, memorialize and educate. in the execution
