Description
The statue Unconditional Surrender, located in Tuna Harbor Park, in San Didego, CA. The orginal statue, made of a foam core with a urethane outer layer, was scheduled to be on loan through August, 2010. However, it remained installed until May 2012, when it was dismantled and shipped to New Jersey for restoration.
In March 2012, the San Diego Unified Port District voted to purchase a bronze replacement for the loaner. This controversial move resulted in the resignation of three board members. Despite the controversy, construction of the new weather-resistant bronze statue proceeded, thanks in part to a fundraising campaign by the Midway Museum. The bronze "Unconditional Surrender" statue arrived to its new home on February 11, 2013, and was bolted into place two days later.
