A statue in a park with a soldier on a horse with its 2 feet in the air means the soldier dies in combat.

Equestrian statue traditions do exist, particularly in the United States and Europe, where the horse's hoof position symbolizes how the rider died. According to this tradition: one hoof raised = died from wounds received in battle; two hooves raised = died in battle; all four hooves on ground = died of natural causes. However, this "code" is not universally consistent and many statues don't follow it. The claim that two feet in the air specifically means death in combat aligns with one version of this tradition, making it technically True according to that convention.
