AE2 Memorial

[Harvs]

Found this memorial to the Australian Submarine AE2 just outside Kallingur in Queensland, the pictures don't do it justice, it is made out of fibreglass and is about 3 metres long, it is really awesome and the plaques are worth the read, hope you enjoy. :up:

I would love to get my airbrush onto it and give it a good going over but it would mean some jail time i think :yep:

They did a fantastic job on it, all the ports, chains and lines are painted, whoever did it has a lot of talent.
