  • Corporal Matthew Creek of the Royal Military College Band plays The Last Post at the Australian War Memorial, Canberra. The Last Post is one of a number of bugle calls in military tradition that mark the phases of the day. In military tradition, the Last Post is the bugle call that signifies the end of the day's activities. It is also sounded at military funerals to indicate that the soldier has gone to his final rest and at commemorative services such as ANZAC Day and Remembrance Day.

      William Brightwell I agree that ANZAC day is for both countries, as you said, that's what the corp is made from, but I believe the last post is played in many military in other countries too. Who does not like the last post, obviously, has no respect for what it stands for, and also, does not have any appreciation to music itself. Playing the (trumpet) bugel is not a piece of cake.

    Today's politicians sometimes make nationalist statements, but as a Turk, I can say that we are aware of the difficult conditions both Turkish and Anzac soldiers fought and sacrificed in the war in Gallipoli, and we share the same pain. Finally, I would like to share the message that Atatürk, the founder of democratic and secular Turkey, sent to the family of Anzac soldiers: " Those heroes that shed their blood and lost their lives ... You are now lying in the soil of a friendly country. Therefore rest in peace. There is no difference between the Johnnies and the Mehmets to us where they lie side by side here in this country of ours ... You, the mothers who sent their sons from faraway countries, wipe away your tears; your sons are now lying in our bosom and are in peace. After having lost their lives on this land they have become our sons as well."

      This eulogy by Atatürk has, yet again, brought tears to my eyes. His words sanctified the soil of those Tommies’ graves. Such a compassionate, generous, and forward-looking statesman; certainly an equal to Churchill, Roosevelt, Selassie, et al. Where are such men today, when they are needed more than ever? Why are they so rarely encountered?

    My grandad used to play the Reveille at wake-up and the Last Post at day's end, during his national service (Polish Army).
    He was buried today, played out by a trumpeter, like him. Unfortunately I couldn't attend (COVID) but I had a few cans of his favourite beer and a few pieces of his favourite ham and kielbasa and I look forward to going and paying my respects when I can.
    They don't make men like him anymore, that's for sure; but we can try to follow the example he set.

    In Flanders fields the poppies blow
    Between the crosses, row on row,
    That mark our place; and in the sky
    The larks, still bravely singing, fly
    Scarce heard amid the guns below.
    We are the Dead. Short days ago
    We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
    Loved and were loved, and now we lie,
    In Flanders fields.
    Take up our quarrel with the foe:
    To you from failing hands we throw
    The torch; be yours to hold it high.
    If ye break faith with us who die
    We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
    In Flanders fields.

    Rest In Peace, my dear brother Leslie John Mark Dennis, 1961 - 1996, never strong enough to serve our country as a warrior, but played The Last Post beautifully. Though a warrior he was, fighting a lifelong battle with asthma which lead him to the bugle, trumpet, French horn, and ultimately electric guitar. Though his body lost the war in 1996 with two burst lungs, his music, spirit and memory live on in thousands of lives he touched, and souls saved through his ministry as a youth pastor. I can't wait to see you again, Les. XO.
