A precious day of the year indeed, lest we forget. I'll be attending a ceremony up here just over the road at Jerriwah Village.

Lest we forget, I'm sure we
Lest we forget, I'm sure we a have family and relatives who were involved one way or another in the great wars. We need to never forget the sacrifice.
Love the West!

Hey guys, I am in France with 30 of my relatives to remember my great great uncle James Ross Duperouzel who died sometime between 14-16 August 1916 at Mouquet Farm from the 51st battalion and is an unknown soldier with no known grave.
We have now been touring the musuems, cemetaries and battlefields for the last two days and will be getting up at 1:30am to go to the Dawn service at Villers-Bretonneux. We attended the memorial today and met the Governor General Sir Peter Cosgrove as part of the preparation for tomorrow. Our family have been on channel 9, 10, ABC and Sunday Times.
Very moving to be here and am really looking forward to tomorrow.

If this doesn't move you on Anzac Day, nothing will.
