General Douglas MacArthur, Bronze war memorial at Milwaukee County Courthouse, United States
The nine-foot-tall statue depicts General MacArthur in his military uniform with hands in back pockets, standing on a marble pedestal at Veterans Park.
The memorial was dedicated in 1979, marking the 80th anniversary of MacArthur's entrance into the United States Military Academy at West Point.
The statue represents MacArthur's connection to Milwaukee, where he attended high school and later received an honorary degree from Marquette University in 1951.
Visitors can find the memorial at 1010 North Lincoln Memorial Drive, adjacent to the Milwaukee County War Memorial and Milwaukee Art Museum.
Artist Robert Dean created the bronze sculpture over five months in La Colle-sur-Loup, France, before casting it in Montecatini, Italy.
