The Fallen Soldier Battle Cross, Battlefield Cross or Battle Cross is a symbolic replacement of a cross, or marker appropriate to an individual service-member’s religion, on the battlefield or at the base camp for a soldier who has been killed. The practice started during or prior to the American Civil War, as a means of identifying the bodies on the battleground before removal. Today, it is a means of showing respect for the dead amongst the still living members of the troop.
We spent tremendous time in the detailing of the Kevlar helmet w/ cat eyes. The lacings are left over right. The boots are placed at 45 degree angles. The rife is a M16A4 with Picatinny rail for mounting optics and other ancillary devices. We used actual items in the molding process so that everything is life-size. A special bronze plaque can be affixed to the bronze base.

Bronze lasts forever and will never rust, warp or contort. It is an alloy (a mixture of metals) and will oxidize over the years. This process will not hurt the statue. In fact, it can enhance the beauty by turning the statue many wonderful shades of greens, blues, whites and yellows.
