This sculpture, “INFANTRYMAN”, depicts an Infantryman with FN CI rifle held in a relaxed but ready stance. The hat, badges and shoulder titles were modified to represent the parent regiment of the buyer (e.g. the headdress is a Balmoral and the statue has RHC shoulder titles). The statue was ordered by Honorary Colonel of the Black Watch, Colonel Bourne, as the Regimental Centerpiece of the Black Watch Militia Regiment. It was unveiled in 1969, and is dedicated to current and past members of the Canadian infantry.
