The ash trays are made from brass shell cases fired on D-Day, the nearest being a 4.7" from the Faulknor, then a 4" from the Roberts and a 5.25" from the Black Prince. A clock on a small table is reading 14.05. Around the walls are models of the destroyer Porcupine (in two pieces), an LCT(R), H.B.W. 24 (Persephone) and a T class submarine. Outside the window is a model of the destroyer Duncan.
