If so, then you need a Special Use Permit.

Special Use Permits ensure that the requested activity is appropriate to the area, that it will not unreasonably interfere with the use of the memorial by the general public, and that it will not adversely affect memorial resources or memorial operations. Permits also ensure compliance with memorial regulations, establish a contact person and alert memorial maintenance and law enforcement rangers to upcoming special events. Please remember that permits do not guarantee space will be available at your selected location.
