Jungle Patrol is the first in the Bronze Star (Pacific Theatre) series and also my first attempt at sculpting. I've wanted to do this piece from early childhood. This is a representation of a Marine on Guadalcanal in 1942 returning from a long patrol. The piece was inspired from the book "Into the Valley" by John Hersey, and by the illustrations of Donald L. Dickson, Maj., U.S.M.C.
