A World War II soldier stands in combat uniform, wearing a strapped helmet, laced boots, and a canteen and a rifle slung over his proper left shoulder. He stands on a rocky formation with his proper right knee raised and his hand resting on it. The statue is mounted on a tall, pedestal-like, multiplaned base with a two-tiered, inscribed lower section.
