John - As a Vietnam Vet (I marched with the RAE), it was great to see the huge turnout and the number of kids.
We are on the cusp of a new ANZAC era with very few WW2 Vets left any more, and their numbers are sorely missed.
I get a shock at the numbers of aged Vietnam Vets, and how many Vietnam Vets have already gone.
It's good that you're keeping up the ANZAC tradition of respect for Veterans, and showing the youngsters the true meaning of mateship, selflessness and courage in adversity, that makes up the ANZAC tradition.
I trust that the younger generations learn and never forget that we owe our freedom and our great lifestyle to the efforts of relatively small number of ordinary men and women, who made great sacrifices to ensure dictators don't rule us.

Cheers, Ron.
