Australian War Memorial Treloar Centre Open Day

The Australian War Memorial Treloar Centre is where they keep all the big things they do not have room for at the War Memorial itself. Today was their annual open day and of course I went for a look. Here are some photos from my visit. They are in no specific order, just how I took them.
