Popular Post Stillwater Posted April 25, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted April 25, 2022 Some strange things in eastern Europe turn the clock back and let us remember the past really strong. Nevertheless, a happy ANZAC day to the folks in A and NZ. 6 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodger Pettichord Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 ANZAC Day, indeed. Too few outside Australia and New Zealand know the magnificent history behind the holiday. Hats off to you, mates. 6 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingfish55 Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 I recall visiting a cemetery/memorial somewhere in Borneo, I think it was Labuan, where the Japanese surrendered to the Australian forces. A very moving experience indeed, having also visited in 1988 the memorial at Kanchunaburi to the fallen soldiers on the infamous Burma railroad. I also met a number of ex servicemen at a reception in Bangkok. All of them were humble, honest men who felt it was their duty to serve and sought no publicity or fame. We owe our freedom to them all. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W2DR Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 My father never returned from Guadalcanal. He died a month before I was born. My heart goes out to all those who sacrificed so much. And to their families. My thanks go out to those families in AU and NZ who have lost their loved ones in the pursuit of freedom. The world owes you and yours a deep debt of gratitude. May you and yours all rest in peace. 3 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
