Speeches for ANZAC Day 25 April
Today for Anzac Day the Australian flags and New Zealand flags have been flying all over the English speaking world, certainly in London, England, as well as Canada (whose soldiers were also at Gallipoli), various islands, and of course in Australia and New Zealand.
The short quotation we recall easily is 'for your tomorrow they gave their today'. But even more relevant to Gallipoli is the quotation from the speech given there by the Turkish leader, Kemal Ataturk, a masterpiece of the rhetoric of reconciliation.
Memorials to the Australian and New Zealand forces and Canadian forces include one to Australian forces at Hyde Park Corner in London, at Gallipoli in Turkey, in northern France, and in Australia and New Zealand including Canberra.
