Bloody oath mate 

I have chills every year seeing Anzac footage on TV. 

i can't believe i'm saying this...............

for aussies, and kiwi's.


paul.

Brother in law is in the Army, done a few Tours, he has told me of some of the Horror stories of what he has seen and witnessed.

And then I think of how much worse things were in WW1 and WW2, Guys fighting in Trenches with Dead bodies around them for days and weeks on end, no or poor quality food, Dysentery, Guys being so sick/weak they fall into and drown in the sewerage pits.

I'm proud to say I shed a tear for these guys and girls in the Armed forces on Anzac day (Past and present), proud of there current service and for the Sacrifices they have made.

Yep, the personal tales from my uncle (WW2 Army) who fought in New Guinea and ended up in Changi.

My Grandad (WW2 Navy) Minesweepers. Shrapnel from a mine in the lungs nearly got him.

And mates of my own age group (Vietnam) both Nasho's and Regular (AIF and SAS) who ended up really screwed by everybody! The Government, the public and even initially the RSL who wouldnt admit them because they reckoned it "wasnt a war". Cheeeezuss

Yep, I shed a tear and thank the stars that I missed out on the ballot by 1 day. And feel guilty because I didnt share the crap that my mates did. And will always give the respect, and have the utmost admiration for our Veterans and serving Armed Forces men and women.

Lest We Forget.

Lest we Forget.....

Made the effort and went down to Campbelltown for the dawn service





                                                  Mmick

From those of us who have so much to those who paid the price for it.

Lest we forget.
