Yep Australia New Zealand Army corps. We are best mates until we hit the footy field. 😄
If you meet a Kiwi, you're legally obliged to give them shit, like any sibling relationship. If you meet a Pom then you give each other shit because why not have a laugh. But if an Aussie and a Kiwi are in a pub and a Pom walks in, then it's proper brothers vs the Pom. 😂 Also not just the rugby pitch, the cricket pitch and the netball court. Those women do not fuck around!
We don't celebrate Anzac Day. We observe it.
commemorate
to recall and show respect for (someone or something).
@@stevegraham3817 Yes and commemoration plays its part in our observance. But we most certainbly do not celebrate Anzac Day.
@@doubledee9675 Yep, we observe the day, and commemorate the event and the people.
@@stevegraham3817 A good way to put it.
For many years now, we've gone to the local service in our part of suburban Sydney. The service used be held at the war memorial, but that did interrupt local traffic for a bit less than an hour - and of course we could not have that! So the service moved over the road to the park. The service takes about 45 minutes or so in total, depending on how many wreathes are to be laid. A few preliminaries, including a couple of speeches. We sing the Recessional, wreathes are laid, national anthem sung and we're dismissed.. The dignitaries head off to the next service a couple of suburbs away, and from there to other services. We head off to a coffee shop.
It's very much a local event, gathering around 1,500 or 2,000 people. I don't know how many are at the other services, but probably much he same. It's a good remembrance.
The thing is, Australia is so far away that we could have comfortably stayed out of both world wars and just lived our own lives. England called and said "we need help" so Aussie and Kiwi men signed up in droves and conscription wasn't even needed for WWI. You look after your mates and your mates will look after you. I saw you talking about mateship in another video, and this was the extreme version of it.
Battle of Darwin... P.N.G???
Comfortable 🤨
Ok more of less. Sure the bombing of Darwin was pretty vile, but Japan was never realistically ever going to be able to actually invade Australia. It can be argued that they bombed Darwin because of our involvement in the wall. Don't know whether that's true or not, but it's certainly not too unlikely.
The point I was trying to make is that it was incredibly brave and honourable the way so many young men were so willing to go and fight, especially considering that in WWI we really were so far away from the fighting, and in WWII the war was still in Europe. Those guys signed up to help out people on the other side of the planet because they felt it was their duty and the right thing to do. It's also why a lot of Aussies find it sort of disrespectful the way that 99.99999% of Americans have no clue that we've been their closest ally for over 100 years, and been shoulder to shoulder with them in every military engagement they've been involved in, and even sent in our SAS on their behalf a couple of times. Taking 10 minutes during one history class about the world wars at school isn't much to ask considering the sacrifice that has been made to support their "freedom".
Sorry went a bit of a rant but I'm sure you get my point.
@@Alex.The.Lionnnnnthe coral Sea and Milne Bay put a end to the Japanese invasion plans until then we were in serious enough trouble that we stockpiled over 50000 tonnes of chemical muntions for use against the Japanese as a last resort. We buried, burnt of dumped it offshore after the war. The destruction of the Japanese supply chain was a major factor in Australia not being invaded we were woefully unprepared for ww2.
There isn't too many ANZACs left in Australia or New Zealand. It's Australia New Zealand Army Corp
This was made for children, and is very over simplified, but it's ok! 🙋 Australia only had 4.9 million citizens at that time, even 13 year olds went to fight with their mates! 😪
For someone who's paycheck comes from aussies why weeks late?
