Public Announcement!

The Guardians of the National Cemetery Foundation has initiated a project with the Department of Veterans Affairs (Dept of VA), the National Cemetery Association (NCA), and Washington Crossing National Cemetery (WCNC), to donate and install a statue of General George Washington within the cemetery.

The statue of Gen. Washington, in a kneeling position, will sit upon a base approximately 3’ tall. The statue itself will be approximately 9’ tall from the General’s knee on the ground to the top of his head. This statue will be similar to the one on the grounds of the Freedom Foundation in Valley Forge, PA.

The proposed location for this statue is the peninsula between the exit drive of Committal Shelter #1 and the entrance drive to Committal Shelter #2, facing the main flag pole.
