At the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month we will remember them.

I have my shoulder to the wheel,
my nose to the grindstone,
I've put my best foot forward,
I've put my back into it,
I'm gritting my teeth,

Now I find I can't do any work in this position!

Only found out today the reason for the "poppy" representing Armistice (Remembrance) Day.

Take a Minute : Aussie to the core.

My Native Leaf

The Irish have their native leaf
That in their island grows;
The Scottish and the English love
The thistle and the rose;
But greater than these flowers,
And dearer far to me,
The emblem I love best of all
Is the native blue gum tree.

It sheltered me when I was young,
Beneath its bough I played,
The house where I was born was built
Beneath a gum tree’s shade,
And often in the days gone by
The days when we were boys,
That old gum tree shared my childish thoughts,
My sorrows and my joys.

And if perchance that I shall fall
Beneath a foreign sky,
I hope some passing wind will blow
A gum leaf where I lie
A gum leaf fresh and fragrant,
Blown from a wild gum tree
That grows in far Australia
The island of the free.

He was 22 years of age, recuperating from wounds, then went back into battle at Gallipoli,
to die for us in the name of freedom, that we take for granted.

Pte. Jim Bryant (1892-1915)
