Fort Benning Observes ANZAC Day

Fort Benning observed ANZAC Day at a sunrise ceremony this morning. April 25th is a day to honor those from the Australia and New Zealand Army Corps who fought at Gallipoli in World War I.

This is a tremendous tribute. Thank you, America. My grandfather, a Scot, fought in WW1 and was lucky to survive but left a foot and a few fingers behind in France. This is a fitting tribute to the lads from the Anglosphere who made such a sacrifice for our freedom.

THANKYOU so very much to these wonderful American servicemen and women, for honoring ouf brave men and women who served our countries of Australia and New Zealand. And especially honoring those who paid the ultimate price. May all of you experience happiness, health and success. I appreciate everything you and our servicemen and women do and have done for the peace and prosperity of our countries.

A small correction. April 25th is the date of the Gallipoli landing but ANZAC day is not only to remember that conflict. It is to remember ALL Australians who served in all conflicts.

To be part of a ANZAC day parade is a great deal for me. I'll be doing it with the AAFC.
