Additional Description: Representation of the African-American unit of the Union Army who fought and held Helena, Arkansas during the Civil War. The sculptures feature eight two-dimensional figures of Civil War soldiers standing behind an earthen embankment. Two are aiming their rifles toward the enemy, one is reloading, one is standing with drawn sword, one cradles a wounded comrade in his arms, one stands with a ramrod, and one pulls the lanyard from a cannon. The figures are made of Cor-Ten steel and their accessories --rifles, sword, ramrod --are stainless steel. Phoenix Creative Metal Art -Scott & Laura Kellersberger
