It is ANZAC Day here in Australia - and New Zealand. The most sacred day in our national calendar. The day we remember those who have fought and died for our country in the course of freedom.

I have to be in England later in the week, but I delayed leaving until today so I could once again attend the Dawn Service at Melbourne’s Shrine of Remembrance. A reminder every year to remain worthy of the sacrifices made to give me the life I have.

Happy ANZAC Day! I, as an American, appreciate the sacrifices of all ANZACs military personnel.
