ANZAC Day

[DaveW]

Day of remembrance for Australian and New Zealand soldiers.

"Lest we forget....."

The Ode

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old; 
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. 
At the going down of the sun and in the morning 
We will remember them.

Lest we forget......

I remember learning about Gallipoli... that was some battle.

Thanks for the Aussie patriotism.

Are you a veteran? If so, when did you serve?

[DaveW]

No, not me. My Dad was in Vietnam - came back better than most. He stayed in the Army for 21 years.

So, military family. I joined the airforce cadets when I was a youngster, and thought about following on, but that didn't happen.
