dying in a miserable failure of a campaign to take gallipoli. basically losing a battle
>turning an embarrassing military disaster into a national holiday
lmao
>>58400079
>Although the Gallipoli campaign failed in its military objectives, the actions of Australian and New Zealand forces during the campaign left a powerful legacy
HOLY FUCK KEK THAT DAMAGE CONTROL
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAAA

^ never fought and died for anything in his life
We have the same thing, its called Memorial Day.
>>58400079
got tbqfh f.amalama, when I was young Anzac Day was about respecting the diggers and giving a thought to all those who lost their lives in wars
Now it just feels like Millenials have turned it into Australia Day Ver.2.0
>tfw I never got pissed on Anzac Day and played 2up.
To all the Sepo cunts having a laugh at Anzac being a "failure" - Vietnam....
>>58400362
There's respect for that, but you don't make a holiday celebrating the achievements. That would be like us having a holiday to celebrate the time Jimmy Carter ordered the rescue of our hostages in Iran and the helicopters went down and everyone died. Wouldn't make sense to have that as a holiday.

More like
>the time those Pommie Cunt Generals (sitting in a Gentleman's club thousands of miles away) sent wave after wave of our young fellas to their pointless deaths on a heavily fortified and virtually impregnable beach in buttfuck nowhere because "muh storm the beaches what what!"
Not so much "celebrating" as taking time to remember our fallen comrades.
>tfw I miss being the honour guard for the bugler as they played the last post at dawn
>>58400973
How dumb are you?
The whole point of Gallipoli was to brake through the German line by going through Turkey
And it was a bloody AUSTRLIAN captain that suggested that his men should go ashore and secure them even though they would have zero stratigic value
And when offered flares for communication he laughed
helo yes is stralia avalible
jus quick caling to mek sure they dindt forget

Cashed your dole check yet m8?
is anzac like the Australian version of remembrance day?
So stupid. Not just the fact that we lost to t*tks but it was totally not needed. We weren't the good guys and it wasn't done to defend anyone. They didn't die for Australia. They died for being fucking idiots
t. not Melbourne
>>58401514

Are you from LELBOURNE? Because it sounds like you're from LELBOURNE.
> They died for being fucking idiots
They ied because they were solid Aussie and Kiwi soldiers who even tho they knew what they were doing was pointless and futile they had their orders and no cunt was going to accuse them of being insubordinate.

Implying that not following orders regardless of their perceived sense or logic is ever ok.
