Lest We Forget: WWII

Lest We Forget: WWII

This evocative sculpture by Fredric Arnold is a memorial and tribute to the American airmen who died in World War II. The figures are composites of other pilots in his squadron when he flew Lockheed P-38s from North Africa. The grouping strives to capture archetypal personalities and attitudes of fighter pilots, as well as the interplay between the living and the dead.

Discover how WAE students have the opportunity to explore the wonders of flight, engage with industry professionals, and gain valuable skills for future careers in aerospace. The program includes building and operating RC airplanes, drones, and robotics, as well as coding, rocketry, and LOTS of other aviation and space-related subjects. WAE / WAEE programs complement but do not take the place of an accredited educational institution.
