The Lone Sailor: A National Tribute
The Lone Sailor is a 1987 bronze sculpture created by renowned artist Stanley Bleifeld for the United States Navy Memorial in Washington, D.C. Standing seven feet tall and weighing 1,000 pounds, the statue depicts a young sailor in a peacoat with hands in pockets, seabag at his feet, gazing toward the horizon. The Lone Sailor represents all who have served, are serving, or will serve in the Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, and Merchant Marine. Cast from bronze that includes artifacts from eight historic U.S. Navy ships, the statue embodies the spirit of American sea service.
Symbol of Sea Service Heritage
The Lone Sailor stands as a timeless reminder of the men and women who have defended American freedom on the high seas. From the Revolutionary War to modern operations, sea service personnel have protected commerce, projected power, and preserved peace across the world's oceans. This statue honors their service, sacrifice, and the families who support them. Replicas of the Lone Sailor stand at naval installations and memorials across the nation, ensuring this tribute reaches sailors wherever they serve.
