The Memory Store: The Crow's Nest tells a whole bunch of stories...

The week's Memory Store video is another video from Gary Green.  Gary is a past president of the Crow's Nest Officer's Club and a past president of the Crow's Nest Military Artefacts Association.  This week Gary Green explains the tradition of gun shield art and how each gun shield tells a story.
