"AT DUSK on October 30, 1917, hundreds of troopers from the Australian Light Horse regiments stole away from the British railhead at Gaza to outflank the vital Turkish defences at Beersheba. After a 50-kilometre desert night-march they were in position at dawn. Ninety years later their successors, 50 mounted men and women from the Australian Light Horse Association, are beginning to have a notion of what the troopers must have gone through even before the first shot was fired."

My grand dad was in the light horse in Palestine and I know from his diary that it was a huge strain on man and horse alike.
What an awesome experience for these people. Full credit to them.

wonders why create different 3D models, if you can create one that can be customized?
