Beautiful mural but what really makes the image is the gentleman in the foreground.

I like how he's in front of the image that shows depicts a soldier who could be his son - a very thought-provoking picture.

Firstly that is a fantstic mural & your capture of it along with the guy who has given in both ways, firstly himself & now his son is the topper.
They deserve all honours we can give.

Beautiful portrait and tribute.

BTW, the rubber gloves in my picture are not necessary and were just a prop;-)

Very nicely done. An excellent portrait and very nicely composed.

Great shot! And a wonderful monument to our real heros. Not sure what monuments look like elsewhere, but this one depicts realistic action. Actually there's not an agressive scene in the whole thing.

Wonderful capture Karen, beautiful mural.

Very nice mural Karen. I am glad that everyone has a place to go to remember the Vets. I also like the placement of the MIA flag. Excellent capture.

I don't know what to say, Karen.
This is a beautiful tribute. Thank you.
As a veteran(1966-1970), there are some things that are painful to remember.
We should never forget WHAT we have done; nor HOW and WHY we did it.

Excellent portrait.. really like his expression and the background!

Excellent shot. We owe these vets all the honor and respect for securing our freedoms. I love this wall in Princeton. Karen, as always, you do a great job capturing the essence of your subjects.

Its interesting to see how different your veterans are from ours. Of course, we have few of this age grouping and don't have banners of this style. It looks a bit agressive.

Very nice, Karen, and I'll bet he was in Vietnam.
