ANZAC Day & Remembrance Day
« on: April 25, 2014, 06:14:52 am »
A place to talk about ANZAC day, which is today, and remembrance day.

ANZAC day, for those who dont know, is a day to celebrate the soldiers who put down their lives for Australia and New Zealand. It is celebrated on the 25th April. We have it on this day because of one battle/invasion - Gallipoli. The ANZACS stormed ANZAC cove with courage, devotion and teamwork, many lost their lives, but we have not forgotten them.

A song done in tribute to the fallen -

Lest we forget.

Too bad they charged Turks, maybe they would have won the battle if it was against someone else.  ::) ::)

Respect should be shown to those on both sides at the battle of Gallipolli,

250k Ottoman Casualties - 65k fatal.
205k British Casualties - 43k fatal
33k ANZAC casualties - 11k fatal
47k French Casualties - 5k fatal
 
Allied Losses: 59k dead from 285k casualties
Ottoman: 65k dead from 250k casualties
