25 April 2009
2009 Anzac Day March at Nowra, NSW
Australian Defence Force members from the Navy's HMAS ALBATROSS and the Army's Parachute Training School, Commemorate the 94th Anniversary of the 1915 landings of Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (Anzac) on the shores of Gallipoli, Turkey.
Officers, Sailors and Soldiers represented the units in the Shoalhaven district in memory of those who served, and never returned in past conflicts and crises on both domestic and foreign Operations.
Australians recognize the 25th of April as an occasion to commemorate the first nationally significant military action fought by Australian and New Zealand forces at Gallipoli during WW1.
Anzac Day 25 April 2009 marks the 94th 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.
While we have no remaining Australian veterans of the Gallipoli campaign still with us, Australians all around the world and across the nation gather on this special day to remember our fallen Service personnel with commemorative services held at dawn, the time of the original landing and 11am, the time of the signing of the Armistice bring an end to hostilities.
