Default ANZAC Day - 04-24-2003, 06:02 PM

Today is ANZAC Day....I just thought I'd bring this to your attention as it is a very important holiday in Australia & New Zealand.

For those who don't know, ANZAC is an Acronym for - Australian & New Zealand Army Corps, and today is a date for rememberance and celebration of sacrifices given by these two countries during the following wars of the 20th century:

Boer War
WW1
WW2
Korean War
Malayan Conflict
Vietnam War

Please show a little respect for this thread, whether or not you care.

....And remember that it's not only the super powers that have given huge sacrifices to military endeavours.

For more information, this site is really good - [url:9a495]http://www.nzhistory.net.nz/Gallery/Anzac/Anzacday.htm[/url:9a495]

Also, if you have any other questions, just post em', and i'll try to answer them.

Thanks Guys.
