EDIT:addendum
I excerpted this from the Solomon site:
“The Japanese War Memorial” of the Solomon Islands, located at Mount Austin of Honiara, would have to be the only one of its type in the world. Most war memorials I’ve come across have something to do with soldiers, guns, dead people and stuff. Not this one! It’s about 30 x 10 metres in area. On the western end there are four large blank vertical marble walls that should have writing on them, and to the north a row of Cherry-blossoms that are having difficulty surviving in the tropical environment. The only writing to be found, which is about the famous Japanese sculpturer, is at the base of the bronze statue of a half-human man with scales who is holding a ray-gun looking thing attached to the end of his long tail.
This very futuristic “Star Trek” warrior-type reptilian half-human man has a very determined look upon his face whilst holding his tail-attached ultra-modern ray-gun in his right hand and pointing to the west with his left. Surprisingly enough, when I line up to where he is pointing, for some reason he is pointing straight at the “Mt Dragon UFO Waterfall-lake Base” of northwest Guadalcanal.
I bring this up because apparently it was not the only one of its kind, as we have right here in the NW a bust of an amphibian homonoid in the middle of a gentrified neighborhood. People don't believe me until I take them to see it. From a story? Perhaps, and I am sure there are many others commemorating the struggles and battles Mankind shared. Then we chose to forget, and that is a mystery to me.



I'm sorry to dissapoint you my friend but you're very wrong, big time.
