Mike,

That's one of the scenes in the Korean War Memorial on the Mall in Washington,
D.C. It's just a few yards from the Vietnam War Memorial and is a series of
life-size sculptures, each of which is a "scene" depicting combat during the
Korean War. This one is of a squad of infantry deployed on patrol. They're
dressed in wet/cold weather gear. Another one I remember is of Army nurses
tending to combat wounded. There are other scenes, but I can't remember how
many or what specifically they are about. I was there about six years ago, had
just placed decorations for some buddies at the Vietnam Memorial, and was still
a little choked-up when I went through the one for Korea.

I can choke just reading your post. A touring three quarter sized
Vietnam Wall went through Oceanside last month, I couldn't make myself
go.
