They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
Lest we forget

Lest we forget.

.

"Those heroes that shed their blood and lost their lives... You are now lying in the soil of a friendly country. Therefore rest in peace. There is no difference between the Johnnies and the Mehmets to us where they lie side by side now here in this country of ours... you, the mothers, who sent their sons from faraway countries wipe away your tears; your sons are now lying in our bosom and are in peace. After having lost their lives on this land. They have become our sons as well"
M K Ataturk

Got cranky at work today because a couple of non- Australian people where talking, paid out big time on them... Lest we Forget.

we made sure everyone stopped, lest we forget.....

Absolutely! It is one of the special days to remember those who gave all for us.

I attended the service at the RSL I manage and then had lunch with my sub branch and returned veterans today.

Too many do not appreciate today, ANZAC or Long Tan

I shut the machine I was operating down just before 11 and had my minutes silence and reflection, even had two work mates join me. We all need to be thankful to those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.
Now if the government would just wake up now and protect what these great men and women died trying to protect it wouldnt seem like such a waste.
