    Wreaths of red Flanders poppies are traditionally placed at memorials on ANZAC Day. On 25 April every year, Australians commemorate ANZAC Day. It commemorates the landing of Australian and New Zealand troops at Gallipoli on 25 April 1915. The date, 25 April, was officially named ANZAC Day in 1916.

    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.

    It started with one of New Zealand's most ill-fated military campaigns on the beach at Gallipoli in Turkey in 1915, and is now perhaps our most cherished national day. To mark the launch of Last Post, First Light, we approached five New Zealanders with a close interest in the Anzac spirit to share their feelings about what April 25, Anzac Day, means to them.

    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.
