The sculpture is located on a large boulder in the center of Bronson Park, in the middle of Kalamazoo. The sculpture has seen better days, but at least it's still here. The actual incident was not caused by Spanish navy in Cuba. In fact, it was a boiler that over heated and exploded that suck the main in Havana. This is one of a few memorials that sit inside the park in Kalamazoo.
