Lest We Forget

Lest We Forget

Post by Sunray »

A few weeks ago I took my brother in-law who like me is ex-HM Forces to see this what I think is a fantastic statue. In the North East of England, when you mention statue people think of The Angel Of The North but to me this has more meaning and with Remembrance Sunday coming next week I think this says it all. Here is Tommy The Seaham Soldier.

That's an amazing tribute. Also shows the weariness most Soldiers probably felt at some point.
Hoping to return to modelling sometime this year!! :lol:
