A soldier of World War Two. He reads his letter from a loved one on far away shores. No doubt the setting only serves to increase his feelings of isolation. This sculpture is by Vivien Mallock, who also created the nearby statue of General Montgomery. It is located just along from the D-Day museum.

"Decades of easy peace may go their way and tide and time may drift us far apart, but you who shared our savage yesterday will hold the highest places in our heart."
