Shakleton Memorial, Smithton, Inverness, Aug 2024
I have passed this memorial before but noticed the lettering had been recently painted. It is a remarkable story this is what it says: "Shakleton Park, this park is named in memory of the Shakleton Bomber of 128 Squadron Coastal Command and that crashed near here on the 18th January 1964 it commemorates the heroism and skill that saved both the community and the crew from disaster."
