1st PLACE WEEKEND OF HEROS
2003 DIORAMA CONTEST
"REST IN PEACE"
By: Fallschirmartz

This diorama depicts the harsh reality of the bitter fighting that took place during the Battle of Monte Cassino. As these two soldiers were headed up towards the Abby they come across one of the casualties of war. A very poignant and somber moment for these two soldiers and their Donkey.

As these soldiers pay their last respects to their fallen kamerad the medic checks the corpse for his personal items and dogtags so that he may record and identify him.





























Wow! Brilliant work here Fallschirmartz. No doubt in my mind why this was the winner of the Weekend of Hero's diorama contest. Amazing stuff old friend! Special thanks for sending these pics of it in and sharing this cool project with us. - GL
