Look at this image:
It is a sculpture dedicated to the troops who served in the Australian Lighthorse Brigade and their horses. More specific to the Lighthorse Brigade is the wire on each red pole which represents the emu plumage that was worn on the Light Horsemens' slouch hats.
Well done to the RTA and the NSW Government for such a fine memorial to the Light Horse on the M7. I wonder how much It cost to comission the 'artist.' I hope that some people actually figure out what those broken electrical poles actually mean. As for being inspired by the memorial? No, one has to travle to Israel for that.
