Jerry Roiger of Fargo, N.D., carves finishing touches into his sculpture in a snowbank Friday afternoon, Jan. 9, 2009 outside his home in Fargo, N.D.
The sculpture is a Mount Rushmore-style salute to the U.S. armed forces, from left, the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines.
Roiger is a wood carver by trade and took advantage of the recent accumulation of snow to create a tribute to the troops.
