Let us pay Homage to all the ANZACS past present and future,

To what we in free world owe so much from the shores of Gallipoli to Villers-Bretonneux

thank you to all that made the supreme sacrifice :P

They shall grow not 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 will remember them.

Lest we forget

My boss here is actually Turkish. Today he sent me the famous words of Ataturk:

Those heroes that shed their blood

and lost their lives..

you are now lying in the soil of a friendly country.

Therefore rest in peace.

There is no difference between the Johnnies

and the Mehmets to us where they lie side by side

here in this country of ours.

You the mothers

who sent their sons from far away countries

wipe away your tears.

Your sons are now living in our bosom

and are in peace.

Having lost their lives on this land they have

become our sons as well

They are truly beautiful words and such a show of respect ,it also shows the total futility of War

But some things in this life are worth fighting for
