107th Infantry Memorial, Bronze war memorial in Central Park, United States.

The memorial features seven bronze soldiers in combat positions advancing forward, mounted on a wide granite base at Fifth Avenue and 67th Street.

The monument commemorates the 107th Infantry Regiment members who fought in World War I, breaking through the German Hindenburg defense line in 1918.

The dedication ceremony in 1927 gathered 5,000 people, including military officials and families, marking the ninth anniversary of the Battle of St. Quentin Canal.

The memorial stands 9 feet tall and extends 15 feet wide, with inscriptions honoring both the Seventh Regiment of New York and 107th United States Infantry.

Sculptor Karl Illava, who served as a sergeant in the regiment, used his own hands as models for the bronze figures in the memorial.
