We had to go to Albury yesterday and had just enough time in the afternoon to go and check out the Bandiana Army Museum. I had never heard of it before but what a wonderful discovery! The only unfortunate thing was that we got there an hour before closing time and it wasn’t nearly enough time to take it all in. The displays are really interesting and well put together. There is just so much to look at and they also have a huge display of defence vehicles with descriptions of where and how they were used, including the war horse pictured below.
I would include more photos but I don’t want to spoil it just in case you get the opportunity to see it for yourself. The kids loved it and the Warrant Officer on duty came over to gift the kids with a ‘FRED’ which is a Field Ration Eating Device, which they thought was pretty special.
It was hard to get a good picture of the print on the glovebox due to the glare on the window but ‘MAX SPEED 100KM/H’ felt rather familiar.
