 Les Braves by Anilore Banon
Omaha Beach St. Laurent-sur-Mer Normandy, France 2004, to commemorate the D-Day 60th-Anniversary 30ft stainless steel

"The memorial consists of three elements: The Wings of Hope, so that the spirit which carried these men on June 6, 1944 continues to inspire us, reminding us that together it is always possible to change the future.  Rise Freedom! so that the example of those who rose against barbarity helps us remain standing strong against all forms of inhumanity.  The Wings of Fraternity, so that this surge of brotherhood always reminds us of our responsibility towards others, as well as ourselves. On June 6, 1944 these men were more than soldiers, they were our brothers."
