Today is ANZAC day and I can’t help but stop and pause. As the granddaughter and niece of men who served (and one didn’t return) in both WWI and WWII today is always a day of reflection in our family. When I was young we stopped to remember those that had fought in the Boer War, the first and second World Wars, Korea and Vietnam and thought of war as something that happened in our distant past. Yet here we are today with thousands servicemen and women engaged in conflict. Will you join me today to stop and remember those that fought for us and didn’t come home?
Lest we forget.
