About the Business
Silent Witnesses Memorial - Gander - Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada | A tranquil park dedicated to the memory of the 256 individuals who lost their lives on December 12, 1985 in the Arrow Air Crash. The Silent Witness Memorial depicts an American soldier standing atop a massive rock holding the hands of a civilian boy and girl. Each child holds an olive branch indicative of the peacekeeping mission of the 101st Airborne Division "Screaming Eagles" on the Sinai Peninsula. The trio look to the future as they are surrounded by the hills and trees of the crash site.

A very nice tribute that is well done. The statues at the Memorial are excellent. Make sure you have your bug repellent if visiting in the summer.

This Memorial is dedicated to a tragic airplane crash in 1985. Very emotional place to visit as it is the actual site of the plane crash. Very moving as you walk up to the Stautes and gaze into their eyes.

Moving experience to visit & read the story; bit some of the US flags need to be replaced due to delapidation.

The site of the deadliest aviation accident ever on Canadian soil, so as a civil aviation buff I had to make a visit. Road leading up to the memorial could use a bit of maintenance, but an absolute must visit on the way to Gander.

This is the first time in many years since I visited. Very impressed with what has been done overall since I was there last. A tragedy but a very touching memorial to those who lost their lives.
