My brother lives in Western Australia, and this year the service was by radio. At 0530 he was in his front garden, with medals and a candle. The service broadcast the Last Post, the Silence, then the NZ National anthem, followed by the Australian one. Apparently only four families bothered to get up that early, and Allan was the only one who came to attention; but as he says, "that's military for you"
