Today is ANZAC day. A day where NZers take a minute's silence to think about the soldiers that bravely fought at Gallipoli on April 25 1915. For those who are up early enough there are dawn parades, I really must go to one of them in my lifetime.
They went with songs to the battle, they were young,
Straight of limb, true of eye, steady and aglow.
They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted;
They fell with their faces to the foe.
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
