ANZAC Day

On April 25th, the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) Day is celebrated in Australia, New Zealand and a number of other countries. Back in WWI, in 1915, when the corps landed on the Gallipoli Peninsula, it distinguished itself in battle with the Ottoman Empire. The corps failed to advance, and as a result, it was evacuated. But this was the first major operation in which Australia took part: thus the newly created nation underwent a baptism of fire.

On this day the people of Australia and New Zealand remember their fellow citizens who died in wars and military conflicts.
