Regional/Cultural Day
Anzac Day
Dawn services across the country. The bugle plays The Last Post at 5:30 AM and the silence that follows is the loudest sound in Australia. Two-up in the pub afterward, the one day of the year it is legal. The Anzac biscuit, the rosemary, the march. Every Australian has a family story and every story ends the same way: they went, they served, we remember.
