Peace and War in the 20th Century | Peace and War in the 20th Century - 0 views

  •  
    "The twentieth century has been a century of war. It began with the Boer War in South Africa and ended with the Gulf War in Kuwait and Iraq. This tragic legacy suggests that citizens of the twenty-first century have a shared responsibility to attempt to understand how and why these conflicts occurred and to discover how peace efforts contributed to the resolution of international conflicts.

The Spirit of ANZAC Explained - 11 views

  •  
    The Spirit of ANZAC was suggested by official war historian C.E.W. Bean to have 'stood, and still stands, for reckless valour in a good cause, for enterprise, resourcefulness, fidelity, comradeship and endurance that will never own defeat.' The Spirit was epitomised in the deeds of Simpson with his donkey at Gallipoli - comradeship, courage and sacrifice: others before self.

    The ANZAC spirit The legend of ANZAC was born on 25 April 1915, and was reaffirmed in eight months' fighting on Gallipoli. Although there was no military victory, the Australians displayed great courage, endurance, initiative, discipline, and mateship. Such qualities came to be seen as the ANZAC spirit.

Anzac Day embodies Australian spirit - 3 views

  •  
    Hey, this site is really good because it talks about the mateship and the experiances are still happening and is still real. Unfortunatly, this site is not an account or a quote from WW1 but an army man's experience in the war in Timor in 2000 and Afghanistan in 2008. However, this will be a great site to reference to about how the spirit is still relivant and embody today. Anna
