ANZAC Day 2007

25 April 2007
Day Service and March, Bomaderry NSW

ANZAC Day 25 April 2007 marks the 92nd anniversary of the first nationally significant military action fought by the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps in The Great War (World War One). About 9000 Australians died at Gallipoli, while another 18,000 were wounded.

As part of the Australian Defence Force's commemorative activities, Australia's Federation Guard (AFG) will provide ceremonial guards for commemorative services on the 24th and 25th of April at key sites on the Gallipoli peninsular, including ANZAC Cove and Lone Pine.

A detachment of musicians from the Royal Australian Navy Band will play at these services including ANZAC Cove Dawn Service and later that morning at Lone Pine, culminating in the playing of the "Last Post" at both ceremonies.

Currently, more than 3250 Australian Defence Force personnel are proudly serving their nation on operations around the world in the tradition of the ANZAC.
