LEST WE FORGET

LEST WE FORGET


'As the Ode of Remembrance says,
 'At the going down of the sun, and in the morning, we will remember them'.'

Today marks 96 years since Australian and New Zealand troops landed at Gallipoli, kickstarting their first major military battle of World War I.  
The anniversary will be marked across Australia with memorial services, marches and, of course, games of two-up.
Anzac Day is also dedicated to commemorating the sacrifices of servicemen and women in all wars, including personnel currently serving overseas.
