“America offers no greater honorific than to be memorialized in a monument on the National Mall in Washington, D.C. And there on the World War II memorial, a granite-carved reproduction of the famous KILROY WAS HERE moniker will last through the ages. Beginning with America’s entry into World War II, KILROY WAS HERE started to appear seemingly everywhere, coupled with a cartoon face and hands peeking over a wall. Until the writers profiled in Wall Writers came along, KILROY was the first thing public thought of when they heard the word graffiti.”
