Our Statue

Who We Are

We are the men and women of San Diego County POW Chapter 1. We're the POWs, their family members, and friends. Click on our names to the left to see a brief bio about us!

Our organization is dedicated to preserve the memories and experiences of our country's former Prisoners of War, so that future generations may remember, and avoid such as we have experienced.

Why now?

As time goes by, more and more of the brave members of our armed forces who were held against their will by foreign powers pass away. Time has come for us to honor those who gave "The last full measure", and those few who returned from those experiences.

Your donation will help make that a reality.

At right is a recent picture of the Statue. Soon, it will be ready for Bronzing.


Download the 18 minute slideshow "B-17 Little Girls" This is a nice slideshow provided by Ed Davidson, dedicated to his crew and their Boeing B-17 Bomber "Little Girls". Wonderfully done, and worth the download. (it's an executable file. download to your computer and double-click to run).
