    "Duty" monument in bronze

    Wow, that's just awesome Bruce! What a cool project. I've always wondered how large bronzes were cast, never thought about them being cast in pieces and welded together. Makes perfect sense though. Thanks for sharing this cool stuff! I'll be thinking about this for days.

    Cemetery Watchman

    Larry, thank you for your service. Yours would have been among the hardest to bear because of the BS back home. Thanks for standing up when the country didn't support you like it should have. And you're right how the families carry their own burden for the country. I think that's why this one...
