Gallipoli Remembered
Tomorrow is ANZAC Day. For those who read this blog who are not familiar with this Day of Remembrance, it is the day that Australia and New Zealand remember their war dead.
The Gallipoli Campaign was, and is, a very symbolic part of this Remembrance. Tomorrow, thousands of Australians and Kiwis will attend the dawn service in Gallipoli, Turkey. Thousands of others will join them at dawn services throughout New Zealand.
It is a public holiday in NZ. Despite time, the numbers attending the dawn services increases every year. For an ex-pat Pom, it continues to impress.
