The Massachusetts Peace Statue — It Shall Not Be Again, is a war memorial statue built in the town of Orange, Massachusetts in recognition of veterans who served in World War I. On February 25, 2000 the legislature designated it the official peace statue of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. "A memorial statue built in the town of Orange, Massachusetts in recognition of veterans who served in World War I and designated as the Orange Peace Statue shall be the official peace statue of the Commonwealth." The statue was created by sculptor Joseph Pollia (1894-1954) and dedicated on May 30,1934. According to Congressman John W. Olver of Massachusetts, this sculpture received national attention when it was dedicated in 1934 and First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt sent a letter commemorating the event. The sculpture depicts a doughboy just returned from the war-torn fields of France. He is seated wearily on a stump, and beside him stands a typical American schoolboy of perhaps 10 years, who is partially embraced by the soldier’s left arm. He appears to be listening intently to the soldier’s words with fist clenched. The statue appears in the fifth episode of Hulu's Stephen King inspired series, Castle Rock.
