Montana State Veteran’s Memorial Rose Garden (Rose Park)
"The American Rose Society as a memorial to World War II casualties established the Memorial Rose Garden in 1947. In 1988 a heroic-sized bronze sculpture of a winged male figure lifting a young soldier from the earth, created by Deborah Coperhaven, was installed honoring Vietnam Veterans. Seven Bronze plaques list the names of Montana Vietnam Veterans. A marble plaque at the base of the sculpture reads:

'Together we flew to battle
Hearts and blades pounding
Sharing the fear and pain...
Parted yet together
We faced the unknown.
You Death, I the future.'

Tom Crosser, 1988"
