At the base sits a concrete pedestal bearing a metal silhouette of a fallen soldier (rifle, boots, and helmet pose) and a dedication plaque. The setting appears to be an outdoor memorial garden with a bench, rock border, and eucalyptus trees in the background.

    4th grade teacher, Kathy Baucus, at Poplar Elementary in Fontana, Calif., instructed her students to create biographies and write poems about who their heroes are. Some wrote of their parents or the people who raised them. Others wrote of celebrities who are living a wealthy and famous life. But most of the children wrote of a Marine who died during Operation Iraqi Freedom. He was a friend to the school. He was also Kathy Baucus’ husband.

    A U.S. Marine Corps officer in dress uniform shares an affectionate moment with a woman in a polka-dot dress. The officer has his arm around the woman's shoulder, and both are smiling at each other in what appears to be an outdoor setting. The scene suggests a reunion or celebratory occasion.
    A U.S. Marine in desert MARPAT (Marine Pattern) camouflage uniform stands with arms crossed in front of a large military tactical vehicle. The name tape reads 'CHAPPELL' and the branch tape reads 'U.S. MARINES'. The image appears to be a formal or editorial-style portrait taken outdoors.
