In 1781, thousands of French soldiers marched through Connecticut under the command of General Rochambeau, joining George Washington in the campaign that would lead to victory at Yorktown and help secure American independence. One of the most difficult parts of that journey brought the army through Breakneck Hill in Middlebury. Today, artist Tony Falcone is bringing that history to life through the creation of a bronze monument honoring the French soldiers who made that march. In his studio, Falcone is sculpting the figure that will stand as a permanent tribute along the historic Washington–Rochambeau Revolutionary Route. This video follows the process of creating the monument—from sculpting the original form to the mold now being prepared for casting in bronze. The statue will be unveiled June 27, 2026 at the Rochambeau Memorial Monument in Meadowview Park, Middlebury, CT, helping preserve and share this important chapter of Revolutionary War history. The project is currently raising funds to complete the monument and build the park where it will stand.
