[quote="Captain Wilkins":1a5b3]That's pretty rough, Mike. My Condolences.
Also, 'The last post', played before 80,000 absolutely silent people on ANZAC Day at the MCG, before the Collingwood vs Essendon match gets me every year. It's like Zoner said, with the Patriotism angle.[/quote:1a5b3]
i went to belgium last year on a school history trip and went to the Menin Gate and saw the Last Post which theyve played every monday since the war ended. and its totally different from watching it on the tv or something, when youre actually there at the memorial with thousands of names of soldiers who died all over the walls
