ANZAC Day


Today is the day when we commemorate Australians and New Zealanders [ANZACs] who have fought in wars, particularly those who have fallen.

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.

  1. Hear, hear.

    Those words always make a slight shiver run down my spine as it's so poignant.

  2. Sounds like our Memorial Day which is in the end of May-parades and visits to local cemeteries to decorate soldier's gravesites and family get-togethers...it is good to remember because we take so much for granted.
