ANZAC - Lest we forget.

Have just finished listening to Peter FitzSimons 5 war books on audiobook: - WW1 – ‘Gallipoli’, ‘Fromelles and Pozires’ and ‘Victory at Villers Bretonneux’. WW2 – ‘Tobruk’ and ‘Kokoda’. Each one is special and heart wrenching, written and told to you from an ANZAC perspective. I have heard them before, and every 5 years or so I listen to them again. ‘Kokoda’ is especially meaningful. Those young boys actually fought and died saving Australia from Japanese invasion in July and August 1942. Had they not, we would have all been in trouble. Lest we forget.Edited 27-Apr-23 17:41pm

Yes, we shall remember them. Those of our current world leaders who don't learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

War and we have more fighting as if we need it. Go Ukrainian 🇷🇼 Lest we forget and remember the ones still facing war today. So sad have we not learnt from our past and may redemption and rightfulness prevail.

Most of them came home far less merry than when they left.

	They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old. Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, We shall remember them.
