Cherokee, North Carolina
The inscription, just in front of the eagle's wings reads: "In memory of all our men and women's service to our great nation", and on his head is the well-known POW-MIA symbol with the words: "You are not forgotten".

WOW....that's a BEARY eye-catching use of the flag isn't it?! A nice memorial to our heroes though.

I love these statues. In Tucson, there were several like this...only horses. They're all so unique and captivating, I think.
Wow - where is this?
Interesting find. Wonder if it's a stand alone or if it's one of those town projects with uniquely painted bears all over the place. They did that once with little fake lighthouses in this vicinity. I rather hope this is a "oner" rather than a whole bunch-that just seems kind of weird to me.
This would also make a funky addition to Mural Monday.
When I visited my family in Minnesota awhile back, there were Snoopy houses all around town! I love seeing the variety of artistic expression...
Love this shot! :)

While many institutions don't always reach the audience they once did. Approaches such as this are a breath of fresh air.
When I lived in Toronto, they had several life size Moose painted to suit different themes.
Very cool!
Powerful statement made in an interesting fashion.
A great tribute...
