hardly a lot of info on your opinion - which might help to start a discussion
Anyway, this is a very Aussie day. It is quite ironic that we "celebrate" a battle in which we were soundly defeated - which in itself is quite an Aussie thing to do - "we didn't win but we gave it a bloody good go".
I think for me it is a reminder that people many years ago fought so that we can enjoy the freedom that we have today.
It is special to me as my father is a Vietnam Vet.
It's also good cause you get a day off work
