The Soft Opening

The exhibition had its soft opening yesterday, with a visit from HRH Prince Andrew. All went well, and the space now looks great, with all the boards up, and the aircraft information panels, directional signage and exhibits in place. The area of the Museum designated for this exhibition looks fantastic.

At ground level the exhibition space is well paced and presents the information and exhibits clearly.


This is the one and only green aircraft information panel, signifying that this Westland Wessex helicopter is part of the Royal Marines display area.

The overall entrance panorama.

Down to the last detail - this information point has a magnetic panel at the foot, to brand it for the exhibition.

The Royal Marines case, fully illuminated.

These are a selection of our Reminiscence boards, now in position.

The branded staircase wrap, to enhance the Royal Marines area.

Clear text boards tell the story of the conflict.
