These photographs were taken at the SOE War Memorial at Patterson Park in October 2007. At first I thought that the name SOE was a typo, but have since been told that SOE may have stood for "Sons of England". The memorial can be found at Google Earth Co-ordinates 26° 9.623'S  28° 4.774'E, or Download the KMZ File. Center images open in a new window.
