It is worth noting...that the post by molodoychelovek.....quotes a speech by none other than the Father of modern Turkey, Mustafa Kemal....perhaps better known as Kemal Attaturk. This great Turkish Statesman and Soldier rendered the Anzacs a generous tribute. To this day, Turks and Australians hold each other in a degree of enduring good regard and respect, that is rare between former enemies.
Those heroes that shed their blood and lost their lives... You are now lying in the soil of a friendly country, therefore ret in peace. There is no difference between the Jonnies and the Mehmets to us where they lie side by side. Here in this country of ours... You, the mothers, who sent their sons from far away countries wipe away your tears. Your sons are now lying in our bossom and are in peace. After having lost their lives on this land they have become our sons as well."
Yeah its a very nice video tribute but would have been nice to mention the other half of the ANZAC's. Remember it does stand for Australia and New Zealand Corps.
Very touching, long live the spirit of the anzacs!

ANZAC Day tomorrow. To all the Diggers, living and fallen, past and present, we will remember them.
