The memorial stands between the parking lot and the main building of the Montana Veteran's Home in Columbia Falls, MT. In front of the statue are two bronze cannons, possibly of Civil War vintage. The statue is a contributing object to the Montana Soldiers' Home Historic District.
Doughboy
Statue. The 1928 statue of the World War I "Doughboy" is considered contributing to the district on the basis of its
artistic value, although it was moved to the Veterans Home some time after World War II. Originally located in the
middle of Main Street in Kalispell a few blocks north of the Flathead County Courthouse, the bronze statue depicts a
World War I soldier with arm outstretched, carrying a rifle. It stands on a granite base bearing a commemorative veterans
plaque.
