25th of April...
Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the LORD will renew their stength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.. lest we forget.
G'day Stumpy, happy ANZAC day to you. A very poignant piece you have written here, well done! But it wasn't just the Aussies, Kiwis, Brits and Turks we should remember at Gallipoli. There were many others there too from far and wide. On the Turkish side were the various nationalities from all over the Turkish empire (Arabs, Jews, Kurds, Greeks amongst them), as well as troops from Germany. On the allied side, there were Canadians, Nepalese (Gurkhas), French, Sengalese, Algerians, Tunisians (Amongst the members of the Corps expéditionnaire d'Orient), and of course the French Foreign Legion (Who's soldiers came from everywhere). It was almost a UN effort.
