Today we pause to remember and honour the courage, sacrifice, and service of all those who have served our country.

On ANZAC Day, we acknowledge the enduring spirit of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps and pay our respects to past and present service men and women, as well as their families.

Lest we forget.
