Comments: Located in the Military Park of the 45th Infantry Division Museum
The monument is a 42 foot tall red granite monolith originally erected and dedicated in downtown Oklahoma City in 1962.
Urban renewal required the removal of the monument, so, the 45th Infantry Division Association expended a great deal of time and resources’ and had the monument moved to the grounds of the 45th Infantry Division Museum where it is currently, a proud symbol of a proud Division.
