At The Going Down Of The Sun And In The Morning

April 25th is ANZAC Day, when Australians and New Zealanders honour those who have fought to defend our countries and to end tyranny.

Although not all engagements our troops have been sent into have been entered into by our political leaders for the best of reasons, those troops did and still do risk their lives every day and they deserve acknowledgement.

ANZAC Day does not glorify war, it remembers it.

The title of today's post is taken from The Ode of Remembrance.
