Even if Hollywood doesn't notice all the Anzacs did for the allies in both world wars Canada does. Canadians & Anzacs were hands down the best soldiers of both world wars in my opinion. God Save The Queen.
this is an Australian television mini-series, called 'ANZACS' made in 1985, goes for 520 odd minutes, not a bad 'early' mini-series. it follows the 8th battalion of the A.I.F. (Australian Imperial Force) the shoulder patch, white over red, worn by soldiers of the 8th battalion was their identification patch, to them it was called 'blood and bandages' as taken from the colours. for a country of 4milion, we sent 330'000 troops overseas of whom 60% were casualties (60'000 dead and 166'000 wounded)

@Albertanator Ja, Portugal heeft ook troepen gestuurd, om de zog. barbaren tegen te houden! Ken je die mop niet van die Portugees die, in de loopgraven gelegen, wachtend op aan- of uitval, in één minuut talloze Franse woorden erbij leerde van een Franse kameraad? (Hij verveelde zich anders toch maar.) De Fransman zei : alle Portugese woorden die op "ção" eindigen, eindigen in het Frans op "tion", zoals in 'situação' ; dat wordt dan : situation. Enzovoort.
@Zeeuw1957 Sorry friend but I do not speak Dutch but I have a good Dutch friend that lives a few doors away so I will get her to translate for me. Take care.
@Daniel4646 Ja, dezelfde ; knap gevonden, hoor : ik had hem niet meteen herkend, een jaar of dertig jonger! Wist u dat Paul Hogan dit jaar alweer 73 wordt? Hij is van oktober 1939 ; ouwe zak, hè? Toch had hij hierboven iets bekends in zijn spraak : onverstaanbaar Aussi-Engels! Gelukkig hebben wij ondertiteling onder de films die we thuis op tv of in de bioscoop bekijken, dus daarmee hebben we dan nog geluk! Ander was die rimboejongen helemáál niet te verstaan geweest voor onze zoetgestemde oren!
My wife? Her dad was in the Middle East and New Guinea during WW2. He was awarded medals .The important thing to me? He was a great dad, and she speaks of him fondly.
I recall reading somewhere that Australia has sent its diggers to fight in more places in the world than any other country even though it is a relatively young nation. Don't know if that is true or whether I misunderstood what I read.
Umm....no. Did the Australians fight in the Balkan war of 1913? In the Falklands? In the Russo-Japanese war of 1905? In the Iran-Iraq war of the 1980s? In Algeria in the 1950s? In the Irish Civil War of the 1920s? In the Russian occupation of Afghanistan? In the middle eastern wars of the 1960s and 1970s? Etc, etc, the list goes on. I think you are badly misinformed.
@055697 They did fight in WWI which was caused by a pissing contest by the Monarchs and WWII, the Korean War, Vietnam, the First Gulf War, Somalia, and finally Iraq and Afghanistan, You sir are totally misinformed. The funny thing is you are posting this on a battle that the Aussies fought WWI!! Idiot..
No, I am not an idiot. Read the comments. Someone said ''Australia has fought in every war since 1901'' and I corrected that person with some FACTS that Australian troops HAVE NOT FOUGHT IN EVERY WAR SINCE 1901. I was simply correcting a completely incorrect, erroneous, wrong, misinformed, bogus, untrue, statement posted here. So why don't you now reflect on your own mongoloid and dribbling pointlessness before turning the gun on yourself.
@055697 Da's wat overdreven, vind zelfs ik! Al weet ik ook wel dat horden Yanken die vóór 1990 in de vml. BRD gelegerd waren, niet eens wisten of zij zich op hun hoofdkwartier in Berlijn nu in West- of Oost-Berlijn bevonden. Wat een gelazer had dat gegeven als ze jullie vrij hadden laten schieten : grote kans dat jullie ons in het Westen opgeblazen hadden! En dan dat plassen over die dooie Taliban vind ik ook niet kies, hoor! Of het martelen van onschuldigen in de Abu Greib en in Guantanamo!
One of the greatest defeats of portuguese military history MY FUCKING PORTUGUESE ARSE, just trying to steal the glory of our heroic defense for the british as usual, if it wasnt our boys from the 2nd Division the germans would just pushed into allied territory with ease. We suffered heavy losses but we managed to delay the german attack to the point that they suffered so many casualties that the german attack was stalled, thats not a defeat, thats an heroic defense.Our presence there was vital!!
@Balaimitaxi Do you know what happened to the bikes that the Portuguese left on after a British bicycle battlion came up to reinforce the front? The king wants them back.
Aussies, Poms and Yanks. Everybody won the war. But what about the thousands of Kiwi soldiers who bled and died propping you lot up? No mention is made, because we can't be heard over the noise of you bastards patting yourselves on the back.
@MSdwerr It is a 1980s Television series. It was made to be very historically accurate using the Australian Official History and it had a small crew of historians consulting the script writers. It follows real events.
The uncle of my mum served Germany and died...you guys must respect the german soldiers... this was in ww2, and i am brazilian, he was too, but i am descendant of germans.
@LitlleDinho -murderers were the gerries,killers of 6 millioons of jews.so.dont be so damn proud of them,that little murderer of a corporal killed also 50.000.000m others,idiot.
@ur1sob2001 due you mean like the americans who all but wiped out the native indians,or stalinest russia who murdered 20,000,000 of their own people or the british who starved south africans in concentration camps in the boar war or the japanese who slaughtered millions of chinese in their invasion in the 30's,shall i go on,or are you going to shut the fuck up you nieve prick
@Aidan1ish Im sure the people of them countrys will be very pleased to know where they rate on your scale and the countrys at the bottom will vey sad about that an in tears to know do they do not make the top 5 in your list of your favrorite English speaking countrys. I will now go kill myself coz England is not on your list and Im ashamed.
well u idiot portuguese are not coward, u should read some history about the wars against spain (3 spanish to 1 portuguese) (we won) and others, since our fundation we have been in war against Rome, Spain; France; the Arab Empery and others, we fought in the WWl, but we didnt in wwll
@SuperDilligas so yeah whtas up with this discrition? they look polish with british accent, but definetly no portuguese, dont call us cowards our and europe's history says the opposite ; )
Yer Im Aussie and we do fight Bravely. Lol Without the men and Women of the Australian Imperial Force in WW1 and the Australian Army and Chocos in WW2 i would be Speaking German, Turkish or Japanese so i own them alot!
@NessyPro Relax mate, the Boche, Japs and Jacko would've let Aussie be once they saw what a shit hole it was. Now, us Kiwis had good reason to worry about being invaded.
Even if Hollywood doesn't notice all the Anzacs did for the allies in both world wars Canada does. Canadians & Anzacs were hands down the best soldiers of both world wars in my opinion. God Save The Queen.
Appreciation from Canada, true brothers in arms.
