91st Division Monument, Military memorial at Fort Lewis, United States

The monument combines six bronze statues surrounding a central 40-foot sandstone shaft designed by architect John Graham Sr in 1930.

The memorial honors the 91st Division soldiers who served in World War I, particularly during the Meuse-Argonne Offensive where five troops earned Medals of Honor.

Sculptor Avard Fairbanks created detailed figures representing military duty and sacrifice, which he presented as his Master's thesis project.

The monument stands at the western end of Watkins Field parade ground, directly in front of the senior officers' residential quarter complex.

Frank McDermott, president of Bon Marche Department store, contributed 50,000 dollars to fund the entire construction of this military tribute.
