Maybe this is a bit off topic, but in the spirit of Anzac and mateship, below is a good song written by my good mate Peter Barnes.

here is:

Can You Hear Australia's Heroes Marching? is a national war memorial song and a tribute to the ANZAC spirit of mateship, courage, and sacrifice.

The song is timeless and honours the memory of those who have died in the service and defence of Australia in war.

Can You Hear Australia's Heroes Marching ?

Can you hear Australia's heroes marching?
Can you hear them as they march into eternity?
There will never be a greater love
There just couldn't be a greater sacrifice
There just couldn't be

Can you hear Australia's heroes marching?
The ones who fought and gave their all

Can you hear Australia's heroes marching?
Can you hear them as they march into eternity?
There will never be a greater love
There just couldn't be a greater sacrifice
There just couldn't be

Can you hear Australia's heroes marching?
They're marching once again
Across our great land

Can you hear Australia's heroes marching?
Can you hear them as they march into eternity?
There will never be a greater love
There just couldn't be a greater sacrifice
There just couldn't be

Can you hear Australia's heroes marching?

I'm glad John Howard's back in the saddle again to maintain our strong alliance. :)

Well, you're quite welcome, Random. We know the sacrifices that Australia has made over the many wars that we have fought side by side. Your wonderful soldiers are as dear to us as any of our own. We keep them in our prayers. We are very proud to call Australia friend and ally.

Oh, one other thing. I hate to be greedy and demanding, but more pictures please! :*)
