where is the statue of the sailor kissing the nurse
Unconditional Surrender (sculpture) In September 2014, the statue was removed from Civitavecchia and installed at the Caen Memorial in Normandy.[26] In Civitavecchia, hundreds of demonstrators protesting against the dismantling. It was precisely this installation in Caen, which was conversely also controversial. In October 2014, French feminist group Osez La Feminisme (fr) petitioned to have the statue removed and sent back to the United States, stating, "the sailor could have laughed with these women, embraced them, asked if he could kiss them with joy. No, he chose to grab them, with clenched fists, to kiss them. It was an assault."[27] Following this incident, the Caen memorial placed a plaque under the sculpture to explain the nurse's identity.[28]
