Re: ANZAC Day
Thank you for your service Ray, and all ANZAC veterans and serving personnel.
I was watching a TV program called "History Hunters" recently, which is about a Militaria shop here in the UK. They bought a couple of ANZAC campaign medals and did some research into the recipients. One had been killed on 25th April at Galipoli and they were amazed at the amount of research the Army had done at the time, and that was still available now, as compared to UK Army records. Truly horrific reading though

Re: ANZAC Day
Ray and all our Aussie members, We Will Remember Them. I shared greetings last night with David Hay, Bruce Cameron and Rip Riley and at dawn this morning made my own remembrance. Good to see 2 Cav, despite Trooper Courage going AWOL. I spent some happy times with the Regiment in Holdsworthy just after Vietnam finished. All the best to our friends Down Under.
