Commando Memorial in the mist

This is a photo that I took as we drove towards the Commando Memorial at Spean Bridge, near Fort William in Scotland - taken through the front window of the car.

 

.The Commando Memorial is a Category A listed monument in the United Kingdom, dedicated to the men of the original British Commando Forces raised during World War II. Situated around a mile from Spean Bridge village, it overlooks the training areas of the Commando Training Depot established in 1942 at Achnacarry Castle. Unveiled in 1952 by the Queen Mother, it has become one of the United Kingdom's best-known monuments, both as a war memorial and as a tourist attraction offering views of Ben Nevis and Aonach Mòr.
