One part of a museum, rather than a report on a whole site but hopefully of interest. My brother-in-law recently completed a commission to build a diorama for a new exhibition gallery in Sydney's recently renovated ANZAC War Memorial. It's a large piece showing an action where Capt Jeffries of the 34th Battalion won a posthumous VC during an assault on a German pillbox. The scale is approximately 1/25. There's move information about it and the construction here https://thetacticalpainter.blogspot.com ... orama.html

It brings the full horror to life. The poor men who had to fight through that hell. The dead horse is particularly grim.
I hope it serves to educate future generations for years to come.
