Silo artist Jenny McCracken used an image from the war etched in granite on the Vietnam War Memorial in Canberra as her inspiration. This features the iconic Huey helicopters and group of soldiers waiting on the ground.
The second mural facing north will create a quiet place of reflection with soldiers standing at attention beside the Long Tan Cross.
