ANZAC Day is a time of solemn commemoration for those who choose to observe it. However, for many people, ANZAC Day is merely another public holiday.
Different groups of people in Australia commemorate ANZAC Day in slightly different ways, but there are some common themes:
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
ANZAC Day is honoured , notably , by both Australia and New Zealand .
In Australia and New Zealand, Anzac Day is a national public holiday.

ANZAC stands for Australia and New Zealand Army Corps. The ANZAC were men from both Australia and New Zealand, and both countries suffered huge losses at Gallipoli, the origin of the ANZAC story. Just as Australia does, New Zealand commemorates ANZAC Day as a day to honour all those troops who have lost their lives in overseas conflicts.
Only Australia and New Zealand
