Veterans' Day

Since Veterans' Day is this week I am presenting a sculpture that was created to honor Vietnam veterans of Native American Heritage. This statue was created because the monuments in Washington D.C. only depicted white, black, and hispanic soldiers; Native people were not represented.





















This bronze statue was created by Harry Whitehorse.
Here is the link to his website, he does work in several different mediums

This statue and many others are located at The Highground in Neillsville, WI. The Highground was created to honor military veterans.

Here are some other monuments located there.
