Where is that statue of Rick Rescorla? I assume it's done from the picture on the front of the hardcover version of "We Were Soldiers Once, and Young"? Didn't you take that picture?

Great Eye, SuziQ.

RICK RESCORLA's 'Follow Me' statue was lovingly commissioned by his 9/11 Widow SUAN RESCORLA directly from the Cover of the book 'WE WERE SOLDIERS ONCE ..& YOUNG' ...written by Lt. Gen. HAL G. MOORE (Ret.) about our Battle in the Valley of Death known as the IA DRANG Valley on November 1965.

Vietnam War Coorespondent PETER ARNETT took this famous RICK RESCORLA Cover Picture in the IA DRANG.
