This is the popular Soldier's Statue of Windsor. Also named Irish Guardsman Statue in Windsor high street is a six foot bronze on a plinth made from bronze salvaged from the Iraq war. The 6ft (1.8m) bronze figure stands on a plinth at the junction of Park Street and Sheet Street where it rises 15ft (4.5m) from the pavement. The figure, commissioned by the Irish Guards and sculpted by a former paratrooper, has been cast in bronze salvaged from the Iraq war. The plinth is surrounded by cobbles from Afghanistan. The Guards wore their distinctive red tunics and ceremonial bearskins as the statue was unveiled. Their marching band also attended the unveiling, presided over by Windsor Mayor Asghar Majeed and Major General William Cubitt. Maj Gen Cubitt said of the statue: "This fine-looking guardsman is on the fringe of the battlefield, weary from action, but poised, ready to see through an untold mission."

I love thing like this, what this signifies is something truly humbling, past and present we thank and remember, lest we forget.
