The statue is the figurehead of the USS Delaware, a ship that was sunk in 1861, the figurehead was salvaged then recast in bronze at the US Naval Gun Factory. There are some amazing cannons around this statue, hidden behind the benches. Look behind the benches to find the giant French cannons, with heads spitting fire and Latin inscriptions. Always clean and well maintained, very nice area.
Nice Monument, but if you're looking for it, it's kind of hidden in far right corner of the athletic fields.
Nice little spot for reflection.
Gorgeous little monument with a solemn feel and important message. However, its weirdly out of the way and is incredibly hard to actually find on your own, which seems to be counterproductive to the purpose of monuments in my opinion
