What about Korean War and Vietnam War memorials?

Seems the original World War II Memorial was later expanded to add Korean War and Vietnam War memorials. The World War II Memorial is by far the largest and oldest, and may be independently notable, but I'm wondering how the neighboring memorials should be covered.

This source mentions the "World War II, Vietnam and Korean War Memorial", this one mentions the "World War II, Korean and Vietnam War memorial", and this one mentions "World War II Memorial Park". Some sources seem to describe them collectively, and others individually. The article for The Fens (Boston, Massachusetts) has a section called "George Robert White Fund Memorial – Veterans Memorial Park", but all the text is unsourced and possibly unreliable.

Thoughts? ---Another Believer _(Talk) 01:23, 15 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It depends on the sources for the other memorials. Are there multiple reliable sources independent of the subject on each of them that provide information about the origin, funding, design and construction of them? I assume they are used for annual commemorations, and material about that would be available in local newspapers etc? Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 08:27, 15 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
