In this artwork, how is the Large-scale version cast of the Production elucidated?
The bankers commissioned a large-scale version to lead the Veterans Day parade only six months later. They commissioned Blumberg to build a monument to be placed near Ground Zero, paying him $500,000 for the work. The Gary Sinise Foundation and the Green Beret Foundation supported the effort to build the monument. No public funds were used.
Blumberg lives in DeMossville, Kentucky. However, much of the work on the bronze monument was done by the Crucible Foundry in Norman, Oklahoma, a full-service foundry specializing in monumental bronze. To get the work completed in time for the November 11 parade, Blumberg spent many weeks on-site at the foundry to get the work completed in time for the November 11 parade.
