ANZAC Day is a day that Australia and New Zealand have to remember our soldiers that fought and died in WWI.
ANZAC stands for Australian and New Zealand Army Corps. We traditionally celebrate by having dawn services, where we give a minutes silence at dawn because that is when our troops originally landed in Gallipoli. We also wear a Poppy pinned on our left side chest as Poppies grew on the Gallipoli peninsula, so they are used as a sign of remembrance. The Last Post is a traditional military bugle call that will be played in the dawn service and even in the Australian sports that gets played on that day. It is played on a bugle and is followed by a minutes silence to remember all the soldiers that died while saving our country. We even have a biscuit called Anzac biscuits that
most families make as they were the biscuits that soldiers wives gave them before they went as they did not perish fast.
