Gallipoli Experience

Commemoration
In Australia & New Zealand,  ANZAC DAY commemoration features solemn ‘dawn services’, a tradition  started in Albany, Western Australia on 25 April 1923 & now held at  war memorials around both countries, accompanied by thoughts of those  lost at war to the ceremonial sounds of the Last Post on the bugle. The  fourth stanza of Laurence Binyon’s poem For the Fallen (known as the Ode  of Remembrance) is often recited.
