Anzac Day (130)
thinking of all those who served our country 
Arealguy69: So its 2:00am in the morning and its time to get ready for Dawn parade, who else is going to dawn sevice?In remembrance of those who paid the ultimate price for freedom
"They shall not grow 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."

WELL SAID...............
(but i am still angry with the genral who made them land on the wrong side of the cove, and the rhetoric fed to those poor soldiers, to sign up even so young as 15!!)

In Australia I think most people realise that killing people is something you want probably even less than the pox, but in so many places such as Afghanistan, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Somalia, Lebanon, North Korea and much of West Africa killing seems to be an Olympic sport. Can't they work out that if you kill a bloke, all his friends and relos are going to come gunning for you, and if they get you it all starts over?

Thanks mate, was going to do a thread asking who had been to the march. I only march the later one myself, getting too old to get up that early, has nothing to do with the fact that last time I did the dawn service, i got so p issed on the rum that i nearly missed the main march lol.
Lest we forget!
Thank you to all the men and women who layed their live on the line for us, younger generation.
Both my Pops served in navy and Army. I'm thinking of you poppy who I lost last May.

They made our country what it is today to my dad who was in the navy and ex partner who was in the army, was killed in action and my bro who is in the airfoce and to all the guys and gals who are serving today and in the past ur bravery is never forgotten.
i'm a radical left-wing sort of thinker. i have no respect for organisations such as the RSL and the ADF. these organisations are full of pro-American conservative right-wing religious warmongers who idiotically worship a bloodstained Aussie rag. occasions like today mean nothing to me. the people who celebrate such occasions don't speak for me.

Shame on you..i have no respect for individuals like yourself..
We all have our own opinions but a little tact and respect wouldnt go astray 
perhaps u would have prefered our fore fathers lay down there arms and let who ever walk right on in,the japanese or germans we would certainly not be enjoying the same freedoms that we have today..thank you to those have helped protect those freedoms
CaySea: We all have our own opinions but a little tact and respect wouldnt go astray
I don't agree with war.. I don't agree with violence or taking another life ... however that does not change the fact that certain individuals think they have a right to force their beliefs or way of life onto others using force and might without a care for human life.. therefore.. unfortunately war seems to be a necessary evil to help keep our freedom and way of life
I cry whenever I hear the stories those poor old diggers retell.. the horrors they witness and experienced .. the friends they lost .. the emotional and physical scars they still have ..
and then there are those poor service men and women who lost their lives to protect their kin and country .. for us.. so we could enjoy the life and freedom we do now .. and their families who sacrificed so much when they waved them goodbye heartbreaking just thinking about it... not knowing if you will ever see your sons (yes some of whom were still children!!), your husbands, uncles, fathers, friends, lovers .. this list goes on
to those innocent civilians who lost their lives getting caught up ravages of war ...
to the opposition who also lost decent men and women for the love of their own countries and beliefs
bad kudos to anyone who does not at least pay tribute and homage to these wonderful people who sacrificed so much for us
no one thinks war is something to be celebrated.. it is the lives lost and damaged and sacrificed we pay respect to on ANZAC day
lest we forget
