Mount Pleasant, Utah

The Spirit of the American Doughboy, often just called The Doughboy, is a bronze sculpture often found at World War I memorials.

I see them often in my exploring and documenting and decided to create this page to document all of them.

The artist is E. M. Viquesney.

Those I have documented are located at the following places:

  • Beaver War Memorial
  • Hiawatha Doughboy
  • Mt. Pleasant National Guard Armory
  • Uintah County Veteran Memorial

Freedom Cherished Gratefully

Battles Fought Courageously

Loss Remembered Reverently

Lives Altered Permanently

Hope Held Faithfully

Battlefield Cross

The helmet and identification tags signify the fallen soldier, their name never to be forgotten. The inverted rifle with bayonet signals a time for prayer, a break in the action to pay tribute to our friend.

The combat boots, worn and dirty, represent the final march of the soldier’s last battle.

This is located in front of the Sandy City Hall in Sandy, Utah

Utah Civil War Casualty

Lieutenant Henry Wells Jackson (March 10, 1827- May 27, 1864), was the only Utah battle fatality of the Civil War and the first known Latter-Day Saint to be killed in a U.S. national conflict. Jackson marched in the Mormon Battalion, Company D, musician; panned for gold at Mormon Island (now Folsom Lake), California; and used gold to pay for his wedding. He and Eliza Ann Dibble were married in Salt Lake on February 3, 1850, by Brigham Young. Henry and Eliza started a family and helped establish settlements in Tooele Valley and San Bernardino, California. In 1858, Henry carried mail for George Chorpenning on the Overland Mail Route, a precursor to the Pony Express. Due to bad management, Henry was owed $1,300 in back pay for his mail service. He decided to go back East to try and collect the money. Payment was delayed, so Henry took employment as a wagon master and was ultimately captured by the Confederate Army and held as a prisoner for three months. He was later released in exchange for Confederate prisoners. Because of the way he was treated, he decided to fight for the Union. Henry enlisted with the First Regiment, District of Columbia, Volunteer Cavalry and was commissioned as a lieutenant due to his previous service in the Mormon Battalion. On May 8, 1864, Henry took part in the Battle of White Bridge near Jarrett’s Station, Virginia, and was shot. Due to infection, he died on May 27, 1864, leaving behind his wife and three children. Henry Wells Jackson is buried in Hampton National Cemetery and is remembered for his great sacrifice and love for family and country.

This is DUP Marker #576 (see others here) located on the grounds of the State Capitol Building and on the same monument as DUP Marker #270.
