*Can you hear Australia's heroes marching?* Can you hear them as they march into eternity? There will never be a greater love...There just couldn't be a greater sacrifice....There just couldn't be........

Richardson What ghosts walk these hallowed hills, Where once the cry of battle reigned? Who are these smoky misty forms that By their blood this ground was stained? Their cry of pain floats on the wind. Echoing from the ridge, Calling for aid and comfort, but alas, The spans too wide to bridge. Only God can help these souls who have Fallen at the line, Build no monument to these men, this Ground shall be their shrine. Let angels hover above the trees and Guard these men of yore, Kiss their cheeks and soothe their brow, For death shall be no more.

*No, thank you.*

This is just more proof to me that America should not be so damned egotistical. Other soldiers fought battles and they did so bravely. Only America expects to be worshipped when other countries fight their own battles without DEMANDING that every other nation kiss their asses. Kudos to all the brave soldiers. A pox on those that never even came close to serving in any military capacity, but DEMAND that they be given respect for something they were too cowardly to actually particpate in.

This thread is intended to honor the soldiers of New Zealand and Australia, not critize America or anyone else, there are plenty of other threads for that. Level

-hangs head- I am sorry. I did not really mean to go off here. I make no excuses. I was out of line.

I didn't know Americans or other nations even knew about ANZAC day let alone bothered to offer their support. I take my hat off (figuratively), the only ANZAC day I have spent overseas I was in Italy and it's their Liberation Day and therefore a day of celebration. I've never felt anything like I felt walking through the gravestones in Gallipoli and finding the graves of my relatives. I would just like to congratulate the Turkish people for the monuments and sentiment felt there. It's true what they say, our men are now buried in friendly soil. 'Lest We Forget'

Three cheers for the diggers! They know how to fight hard and die well. An anglo Saxon Army,like that of The UK,USA,Canada,Australia,New Zealand. Armies founded originally has colonial militias and then later regular armies by the British.

hybridspecies -> RE: A tribute to Anzac Day (4/26/2006 11:28:14 AM)
Dont forget New Zealand folks. 3 million with a very small army that punches well above its weight and although lost the odd battle has never been on the loosing side in a war so far.
