Just back from services etc.
My Pop & uncle Bill (his brother) both served in Flanders, never said exactly where, never talked much about the horrors. Both came back, one gassed and TPI the other minus a leg. I knew them both----- I will not forget.

My ex father in law was a pilot in WW11, had his eyes riddled with perspex from a shot out windscreen------I will not forget.

My father was an American army man, hit by mortar fire, disfigured for life----- I will not forget.

And I'm proud to be an Australian,
where at least I know I'm free.
And I won't forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me. Courtesy Batz
 
No dawn service for me this year, graveyard shift in ED unfortunately.

I'll be raising a glass to my great grandfathers who served in Gallipoli, France and Palestine, to my grandfathers who served in Europe, Africa and PNG and to all my former ADF colleagues who have served in the various theatres around the world in more recent times.

Lest We Forget.
 
Thought of my Par for weeks now and will do for the following weeks.
He was and still is a desert rat of tobruk. He saved many mens lives. A young bloke from Glasgow immigrated to Australia gave his whole to let us all be free.
ill never forget what he and others went through.
Lest it never happen again.
