ANZAC Day. Not aviation but military.
It's a beautiful morning here in coastal Essex and I've just returned from our local war memorial to pay my respects. It's not dedicated to Australians or New Zealanders but it's close enough.
A few years ago I stayed with a friend at his house in Sutton Veny, Wiltshire. He invited me to his church yard where there were some Australian war graves from the First World War.
There were five or six rows, and he asked me if I noticed anything unusual. They were all dated 1919.
All of these soldiers and nurses had survived the Great War and were enjoying being billeted in a beautiful English village before being repatriated when they were all killed by the Spanish Flu.
The church has an alcove dedicated to ANZACs and the local primary school children tend the graves beautifully. Worth a look for travelling Aussies but very saddening. Lest we forget.
