“Today we remember the sacrifices made by the brave soldiers of the Australia New Zealand Army Corps who died in the line of duty.” Bill says.
Today is ANZAC Day, a day where the citizens of Australia and New Zealand remember and mourn those who died defending their countries.
“While today we focus on those who died in the world wars, let us not forget that this day is dedicated to all Anzac troops who have died in the line duty, regardless of what conflict they died in or why they died.” Bill says to the crowd.
“While I no longer fight with the Anzacs, I still remember where I came from, and I will never forget where I came from, because to forget your roots, is to forget why you get up in the morning and to forget why you’re still here.” Bill says.
“Let us pause for a moment of silence for those that have passed.” Bill says.
All falls silent for a minute as the folks in the crowd and the people on stage mourn the passing of countless soldiers.
“Thank you.” Bill says before returning to his seat and allowing another to take the stage.
