Massive Group of WWII Vets Storm WWII Memorial Defying Shutdown

It seems some barriers and gates will not deter these them from seeing their memorial.

A massive group of World War II veterans arrived in D.C. today to an ill-timed government shutdown expecting to still be let in to tour their memorial.

People on the scene reported that the vets "pushed down" gates surrounding the memorial. Further reports say that authorities gave in and opened the memorial, while the official word from park police was that they were "seeking guidance on how to respond."

What guidance do they have to seek? Get out of the way of a bunch of guys that fought the Nazi's and everything will be okay. Sounds good to me.
