AABC Soldier Musician Memorial
Unveiled by Major General B.A. Power AM, CSC - 28 Nov 2008
Dedicated to commemorate Australian Army soldier musicians who served in war and who made the supreme sacrifice in the defence of Australia.
Mounting of Poems on the memorial
A Trophy supplier in Watsonia has been contacted and it was suggested Bartlett Industries be contacted. The contact there is Peter and is extrememly helpful. He did suggest that glass will probably present a few problems in regard to the size and the mounting of them. He then asked if we would go with stainless steel, brass or aluminium. I asked him to give us a cost for glass and aluminium.
They can do the lot. Make them, mount them and put them in the 'deck'. However, I have asked Bob Keatch if Bartletts can mount them on a bracket which will go into the ground perhaps he could get his engineer mates to cement them into the ground for us.
I have also asked Jim 'Shad' Harper to follow up with Peter from Bartletts so that we have some one on the spot to confirm everything including meticulous proof reading and the final costs etc,. That's it for now and I expect to see something positive and final within the next couple of weeks and I can see them in the ground early in the New Year.
