I was surprised that people said they were going on an adventure but it turned out to be war!
I got the imfromation from youtube documentrys. I also read about it on Newshub and RNZ news.A question I could ask is... Did any of your family members go to war Including Great Grandparent and Grandparents?
five facts
- 1916 the first Anzac Day to remmeber were held on 25 April. The day was marked by a wide variety of ceremonies and services across Australia, a march through London, and an camp in Egypt.
2.The date 25 April was officially named Anzac Day in 1916;In New Zealand it was made as a half-day holiday. Over 2,000 people attended the service in Rotorua.
3. By the time the campaign ended, more than 130,000 men had died: at least 87,000 Ottoman soldiers and 44,000 Allied soldiers, including more than 8700 Australians. Among the dead were 2779 New Zealanders, about a sixth of all those who had landed on the peninsula
4. The Turkish planned a suprise attack at Goilpoli but the British airoplane saw them and warned the allies so that attack was a failure.
5. The Anzac’s were all volunteers
What a great post Quinn, you have done a lot of work. I love the picture you have done, it really makes me think of Anzac Day. My great grandfather was in the army, he was posted in India. Do you have any family members that went to war?
