If you want to see respect for the Armed Forces, past and present, go to ANY town or city in Australia or New Zealand on Anzac Day. You will be overwhelmed.
Couldn't agree more. I just attended the ANZAC Day Dawn Service at the Canberra War Memorial. I was amazed by the number of younger people attending, and their genuine pride in their forebears, evidenced mainly by the fact that they are prepared to get out of bed at 430am on a Sunday.
