American Memorial Park
American Memorial Park park honors the American servicemen and Chamorro and Carolinian civilians who were killed in the World War II battles between the United States and Japan that took place on Saipan, Tinian and the Philippine Sea in 1944. Situated on the island of Saipan in the Marianas, the memorials at the park are beautiful and moving, and they stand as a testament to the courage and sacrifice of those who lost their lives in the fighting. The park is also a reminder of the horrific cost of war, and it is a place where visitors can reflect on the human capacity for both destructive violence and selfless heroism.

Paterson Great Falls NHP
The Great Falls of the Passaic River is a prominent waterfall, 77 feet high, on the Passaic River in the city of Paterson, NJ. One of the US' largest waterfalls, it played a significant role in the early industrial development of New Jersey and one of the earliest manufacturing centers in America. In 1778, Alexander Hamilton visited the falls and was impressed by its potential for industry. Later, when Hamilton was the nation's Secretary of Treasury, he selected the site of the nation's first planned industrial city, which he called a "national manufactory." In 1791, Hamilton helped found the Society for the Establishment of Useful Manufactures (S.U.M.), a state-chartered private corporation. The company built a dam and diverted part of the river to create a millpond that supplied water power for factories. The success of Hamilton's vision helped establish Newark as a major center of industry and commerce. Today, the remains of the S.U.M. factory are part of the Paterson Great Falls National Historic Park.
