Art of Bronze is honored to present this powerful life-size bronze memorial statue—The Fallen Soldier Battle Cross—crafted as a timeless tribute to those who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our nation.

This sculpture represents the Persian Gulf War era to today and has been designed with a profound level of historical accuracy and reverence. The composition features:

A highly detailed PASGT Kevlar helmet with camo coverage and cat eyes complete with surface texture that reflect the authenticity of the time.

An M16A4 with Picatinny rail for mounting optics and other ancillary devices, carefully positioned muzzle-down, symbolizing a soldier’s final march and the end of combat.

A pair of boots, with the lacings left over right, serves as support of the rifle.  These boots can be displayed with flexibility—either pointed straight out or angled at 45 degrees—allowing customization to suit your display preference.

Whether placed in a veterans memorial park, civic plaza, military base, school campus, or private collection, this sculpture evokes deep reflection and solemn gratitude.  It stands not only as a marker of loss, but also as a lasting reminder of courage, sacrifice, and honor.

Custom plaques and installation options are available upon request.

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 battleground before removal. Today, it is a means of showing respect for the dead amongst the still living members of the troop.
