Anzac Day

For those who fought during the wars we remember you.
here is a newspaper note to read.
Australia commemorates its sons and daughters who have served in the nation’s armed forces. Anzac Day is the one day of the year that brings everyone together in a shared experience that gives thanks to those who put their lives on the line for their fellow countrymen and those who paid the ultimate sacrifice.

Australians have been participating in the Anzac Day ceremony in ever-increasing numbers, particularly over the last 20 years. This increase in the public’s awareness of the sacrifices made in the past comes at a time in history that is witnessing the passing of the generations, in particular the ranks of WW11 servicemen and women, whose numbers are beginning to diminish due to the inevitable passage of time.

An earlier generation passed through the same experience when the same thing happened to the WW1 veterans. There are now no survivors in Australia of the “War to end all Wars”.

As time also passes so rapidly even the survivors of the Korean War and the Vietnam conflict are ageing, although these ex military people now fill a prominent place in the Anzac legend and the Anzac Day marches that will take place across the nation today.

It would also appear that it is no co-incidence that the last few Anzac Day commemorations have drawn hugely increased numbers. The world is now a more uncertain place than it has ever been since the end of the last World War.
