Big Wonderful WyomingThank you for the ANZAC banner
My fondest memories of Australia stemmed around ANZAC BBQ's, Breakfast and dawn mornings at the Canberra War Memorial.

PeterDon and Saeed, thank you for remembering Anzac Day! I don't know what the current generation of Turks say, but about 90 years ago Kemal Ataturk said this about Gallipoli:
"Those heroes that shed their blood and lost their lives…
You are now lying in the soil of a friendly country. Therefore rest in peace. There is no difference between the Johnnies and the Mehmets to us where they lie side by side here in this country of ours…
You, the mothers, who sent their sons from faraway countries wipe away your tears; your sons are now lying in our bosom and are in peace, after having lost their lives on this land they have become our sons as well."
Peter.
Australia and New Zealand are two of my favorite places to visit. We were in Melbourne and Tas for 3 weeks in January. Seems like a lifetime ago.

Thank you for your service

ANZAC Day was a very quiet affair this year. We have a lot to be grateful for to those that served, and continue to serve.
