ANZAC Day 2014 - We shall remember them!

Australians and New Zealanders today remember those who went before them to war, some of whom paid the ultimate sacrifice, whilst others who went probably had wished they had, rather than continually reliving the horrors they experienced…

‘…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 shall remember them…’.


Extract from the poem, ‘For the fallen’, written by Laurence Binyon in 1914.
