The newest addition to Fort Drum's Memorial Park – Survivor Park – was completed in November 2017. The black granite monochrome mural depicts a 10th Mountain Division (LI) Soldier carrying a comrade on his shoulders. The design was a collaboration between Brian O’Keefe, engineer technician, and Jeff Fox, illustrator, both with Fort Drum Public Works. The monument stands seven feet tall and nine feet across, and bears a quote by American poet Joseph Rodman Drake. There are two stone benches on both sides for visitors to sit. Community members attending the inaugural Memorial to Monument Run on Sept. 29 will have a chance to view all the sites at Memorial Park. (Photo by Mike Strasser, Fort Drum Garrison Public Affairs)
