"A beautiful memorial off the beaten path. It's unique for its time, in that it doesn't glorify war like all the other WW1 memorials from that decade. Instead the angel of death comes for a fallen soldier. His gun is broken and he looks hauntingly off in the distance."

"Came to Prospect Park solely to visit this memorial. I find it incredibly moving that Brooklyn created this monument to honor their own heroes who fought and lost their lives in WWI. My great-great uncle'was among one of the fallen soldiers and so it was touching to see his name etched in Brooklyn, more than 100 years later. The next time you are in the neighborhood or in the park, I urge you to visit this beautiful tribute."
