@mlazz I was at the Dawn Service at the AWM in Canberra today. Three speakers preceded the formal service by reciting dozens of stories of servicemen and -women wounded and killed in combat, and the formal service thereafter focused not on patriotism, nor glory, nor even God—it was nondenominational—but on the overwhelming need and desire for peace. I’ve been to many ANZAC Day services around the country, and this was the most sincere and reverent of them all.
