User blog:Lieutenant General Richard Venables/Lest We Forget

25th of April, 2015
Friends,

Today holds a very special place in the hearts of Australians, and myself personally. Today is ANZAC Day, the official public holiday to commemorate the Fallen's ultimate sacrifice in WWI, WWII, Korea, Malaya, Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan etc. Today, I shall don my beret and greens and march with my predecessors, and pray and hope I can live up to their great example.

I would like to recognise though, my friends on this wiki from America, we will never forget the sacrifices and mateship of your troops with us, that has made us both stronger for it. Let us all take a moment to take a minutes silence and reflect on those who have gone before and those who will undoubtly go in the future.

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
