Default HMS Belfast (Pic heavy)

A few months ago I spent a couple of days in London, and took the time to see some things I'd never gotten to before. I'd seen the Belfast before but never been inside, it was a real treat to poke around inside a WW2 cruiser.

I've thrown in a couple of pictures that folks on here might like, various war memorials from around London and a couple from the Cabinet War Rooms.

The full-res 6016x4000 images are here - http://imgur.com/a/lISsg#0



Possibly the most English picture I could have taken. Heard a commotion above me while on the Embankment, and this was going on.



Submarine Service memorial.







The wreaths are from various submarine associations, if I'd known I would have left a SUBSIM one.





Royal Tank Regiment Memorial, just off Whitehall.





Interesting Admiralty map from the CWR





STEED, BossMark - yer money's in here!









It was a beautiful day, doesn't come across in the pictures but very sunny.



HMS Belfast.



Love the camouflage scheme.





The business end.
