Battlefield Cross Statue Meaning and Design:
The bronze battle cross statue is a historic military memorial. These bronze battle crosses symbolize the honor of soldiers who died in battle. This moving memorial is life-size. We cast the bronze battle cross statue with meticulous attention to every detail. The memorial combines a soldier’s combat boots, rifle and helmet in a symbolic tribute.
First of all, the bronze military statue consists of a rifle, combat boots and a helmet. The rifle points downward, with the boots arranged at its base and the helmet resting above. Together, these elements form a tribute to the fallen soldier.
History of the Battlefield Cross Memorial:
The earliest Battle Crosses are thought to have appeared during the Civil War. During the Korean War, the Field Cross became a way for comrades of fallen soldiers to find and honor their comrades. During the 1991 Gulf War, and during Operation Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom, the Modern Battlefield Cross became a sacrifice, honor, and respect for fallen soldiers. And, the Field Cross is a moving and powerful way to honor the sacrifices of soldiers.
This is a 135cm Battlefield Cross statue we cast for a client in a U.S. community.
