Thousands of people attended this morning’s dawn service at Hobart’s Cenotaph. All generations, young and old, families, veterans, service personal, ordinary people, all stood in silence for a time of remembrance, reflection, gratitude and commemoration.

ANZAC Day marks the anniversary of the Gallipoli landings. A time to honour those who have served in all wars and conflicts over the years.

“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.”

This unique start to the day warranted it’s own post. I will get back to the A to Z challenge late this morning.
