Well done Jasmin. I too am a Child from an ANZAC Veteran and the Great Grand Nephew of a Gallipoli Veteran. He was sadly killed in action at the Battle for Lone Pine August 1915 Gallipoli. Your dad will be proud of you. Thank you for your tribute

Excellent work - well done - I am so proud that a young lady did this. Its wonderful to see that Aussie School children do remember. I do talks at local schools with a donkey around Anzac Day and its wonderful to see the amount of kids that turn up to our dawn service. I also do the dawn service march with a donkey representing Simpson each year at my local area. This is a fantastic video.... Thank You

I loved your video. I'm so impressed that someone so young could produce something like this.. Our country will be in good hands with young people like you.

I would like to play your video in our church service on 26th April this year. I have been trying to download it without succes tho. Obviously I need a kid of 10-12 to tell me how to do it!!

Beautifully made a fantastic tribute one of the best that I have seen on youtube.

it is great that all generations can honour those that perished in the terrible bloodbath of Gallipoli.

many thanks for posting

That's one of the reasons why I have a strong will to join Australian Army...I will serve my real country even death and I will not be used by other countries anymore.
