The Three Soldiers, Detail statue was unveiled and dedicated July 12, 2008 as an unending expression of our gratitude to the living, fallen, and missing veterans of the Vietnam War and all of our nation's wars.
The Three Servicemen Statue is part of The Vietnam Veterans Memorial, Washington D.C. (1982 - 1984). Along with The Wall, this monument serves as a symbol of our nation's honor and recognition of the men and women who served in the Vietnam War. This monumental figurative work of soldiers speaks to what renowned sculptor Frederick Hart called "their true heroism that lies in the bonds of loyalty". It is a visual reference for the ages of their courage and devotion to their country.
