User blog:Vulpes Twigy/ANZAC Day - A date of rememberance

Today on the 25 of April is the day known as ANZAC which is about the Gallipoli campaign which was the Australia and New Zealand Army Corps going to the Ottoman Empire and capturing Constantinople.

Well, For many people who are born with New Zealand or Australia blood flowing through their vains this day for remeberance as this was the main campaign which ANZAC fought in.

It has been 97 years since the start of the campaign and... Well, The only thing I can say is for people to take a moment of their day and just think of the sacrafice that the soliders in that campaign had to go through, Watching deaths of their friends, Missing their family and homeland...

"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 lying in our bosom And are in peace After having lost their lives on this land they have Become our sons as well."
