caption_attribution_description: English: This is the Fighting Seabees Statue which currently resides about 200m from its original location at 21 Lafrate Way, North Kingstown, RI. Although it was restored in 1999, it is in deteriorating condition. It was erected in memory of the Seabees. The Seabee insignia was designed by Frank J. Iafrate. This photograph was on August 8, 2005 using a Canon PowerShot S5 IS on an overcast day.
context_page_description: Seabee Museum and Memorial Park is a non-profit military history museum in Davisville, Rhode Island, devoted to the Seabees of the U.S. Navy.
  Quonset Point, where the Seabee Museum is located was a major United States Navy base during World War II, home to the Naval Air Station Quonset Point and the birthplace of the iconic Quonset Hut. In the 1990s a group of former Seabees decided to found and construct the museum themselves. The museum is a non-profit museum developed on 6.5 acres by former U.S. Navy Seabees. The museum includes the former Navy concrete chapel, seven vintage Quonset huts, and a huge Seabee statue; and the non-profit Quonset Air Museum located in buildings that were originally built for the Naval Air Station Quonset Point.
