ANZAC Day - how important is it to you?
Posted: 4/27/2012 12:48:58 PM | | The main thing I've been disappointed in over recent years is the glorification of ANZAC day and how people talk of 'celebrating' the day, as the news reporters often say. As a young nation we do not have many customs or traits that we live by and ANZAC day is one of the few that sets us apart. However it is not a day to celebrate and talk of military achievements but a time to reflect and respect on the many service men and women who have made sacrifices in the past and present to help preserve our way of life. It sickens me to see drunk bogans wrapped in aussie flags at ANZAC cove partying like it's aussie day and although it's great the younger generations have embraced this holiday I hope it's for the right reasons | | | |
