DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS IS? WHERE THIS IS? READ AND LEARN ABOUT IT!!!!


This statue currently stands outside the Iraqi palace, now home to the 4 th Infantry division.

It will eventually be shipped home and put in the Memorial Museum in Fort Hood , Texas.

The statue was created by an Iraqi artist named Kalat, who for years was forced by
Saddam Hussein to make the many hundreds of bronze busts of Saddam that dotted Baghdad ... Kalat was so grateful for the American liberation of his country that he melted 3 of the heads of the fallen Saddam statues and made the statue as a memorial to the American soldiers and their fallen warriors. Kalat worked on this memorial night and day for several months.

To the left of the kneeling soldier is a small Iraqi girl giving the soldier comfort as he mourns the loss of his comrade in arms.

Do you know why we don't hear about this in the news? Because it Is heart warming
and Praise worthy. The media avoids it because it does not have the shock effect .

But we can do something about it. We can pass this along to as many people as we can in honor of all our brave military who are making a difference in this world with their sacrifices.

Please feel free to link this message to anyone you desire.

As a Proud Veteran - I am very thankful for this display! shazz
