LEST WE FORGET

Thanks Stu and Norman. I had the pleasure this year of attending the dawn service here in Melbourne at the Shrine of Remembrance on ANZAC Day. It was the best attendance since 2019. Always a very moving service to honor those who gave up their tomorrows so we could have today. The last Aussie digger from WWI died a few years ago and we are running low on WWII veterans who still attend. A fair number in wheelchairs at the service but none who march in the parade.

Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn ...

Another year has passed and once again we remember those who gave their lives in the folly of war.
Today is April 25th which is ANZAC DAY remembering those who fell at Gallipoli in WW1.
