Gary Alsum’s “Tried and True” was dedicated November 11, 2021 at the University of Central Oklahoma in Edmond during their Veteran's Memorial Service.

The two soldiers are sculpted back to back. One in full combat uniform, the other dressed for class. Minimizing space between the figures creates a single form. Symbolically, this depiction shows how the soldiers rely on one another as they literally have each other’s back – in service, or in civilian life; they stand together in a life-long connection.

​This camaraderie extends to the family of Veterans which can be felt through this composition as well. It can connect with relatives, friends, and fellow service people, creating a space for reflection from any path of life.

​The National Sculptors' Guild has had the honor of placing a number of monuments commemorating Veterans across the nation. We extend our gratitude and respect to all Veterans. Thank you for your services.
