Today is ANZAC Day! It is a national day of remembrance, similar to Veteran's Day in America and Remembrance Day on 11th November in Europe. We remember the New Zealand and Australian soldiers who fought at Gallipoli in World War I, 1914-1918. Auckland has dawn services, especially at the Domain near the Museum, with the last post playing. The first memorial was held 96 years ago. Now ANZAC day helps to remember all soldiers and armed services people who have died.25 April 2011
