Summary

[edit]
Description
English: A sculpture at the Armed Forces Memorial within the National Memorial Arboretum at Arelwas, Staffordshire.

Created by Ian Rank-Broadley, a wounded Serviceman is raised aloft on a stretcher by comrades. On either side, family members look on - a mother clasped by a child and an older couple clutching each other in anguish. It bears witness to the cost of armed conflict on those left behind - the families, loved ones and friends who live with the pain and consequence of their loss for the rest of their lives.

The National Memorial Arboretum, supported by The Royal British Legion, honours the fallen, recognises sacrifice and fosters pride in the country.
