The Texas Medal of Honor Memorial

The Texas Medal of Honor Memorial is located in the O'Brien Hall at the Commemorative Air Force National Headquarters in Midland, Texas. The Memorial honors all recipients of the Medal of Honor from the [[State of Texas]]. The Memorial was sculpted by Doyle Glass and Scott Boyer. The statue was dedicated on Memorial Day 2008. The Memorial features an heroic-size (eight-foot) bronze statue of Medal of Honor recipient George H. O'Brien, Jr. as he would appear on the day he earned the Medal of Honor. O'Brien, a native of Midland, earned the Medal of Honor during the Korean War. Around the base of the statue of O'Brien are listed the names of all recipients of the Medal of Honor from Texas.
