Thanks Stu and Norman. I had the pleasure this year of attending the dawn service here in Melbourne at the Shrine of Remembrance on ANZAC Day. It was the best attendance since 2019. Always a very moving service to honor those who gave up their tomorrows so we could have today. The last Aussie digger from WWI died a few years ago and we are running low on WWII veterans who still attend. A fair number in wheelchairs at the service but none who march in the parade.
