Default ANZAC Day

G'day all,
Friday 25th April is ANZAC Day.

I'd like to thank all who have, and continue to, fight the good fight.

To those who have family and friends who have made the ultimate sacrifice, my thoughts are with you on this special day.

To all service men and women, past and present, your efforts will not be forgotten.

It is an Australian Holiday. I looked up the actual definition on Google and it reads as follows:

ANZAC Day – 25 April – is probably Australia's most important national occasion. It marks the anniversary of the first major military action fought by Australian and New Zealand forces during the First World War. ANZAC stands for Australian and New Zealand Army Corps. The soldiers in those forces quickly became known as ANZACs, and the pride they soon took in that name endures to this day.
