Never knew of ANZAC Day until I married an Aussie. My wife and I have always marked this day in the best way possible. When we lived near Washington DC, we would sometimes attend memorial celebrations at the Australian embassy. Now we try to catch parts of the ceremony on cable, fire up the barbecue, make do with Fosters (wish I could get XXXX or VB here), and a call home to the out-laws. Might even watch my DVD of 'Gallipoli'.
I salute those of Australia and New Zealand who gave their all. The world is indeed a better place for their sacrifice.
