My wife and I recently spent a week touring the WW1 battlefields in Northern France, it was a very moving experience, with cemeteries in what seemed to be every five or six kilometres, some of them housing tens of thousands of soldiers, what happened in those battles was sheer lunacy, with thousands of young Australian and New Zealanders be sacrificed for what can only be described as unbelievably stupid military tactics. In one of the battles of the Somme 60,000, mainly English soldiers were killed or wounded in one day‼ Something like 11, 700 Anzac soldiers are still unaccounted for May such carnage never happen again and lest we forget Patrick Callaghan -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Margaret Garthwaite Sent: Monday, 12 November 2012 12:34 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [AUS-NSW] In Remembrance of all Australians and New Zealanders who gave their all God bless them -----Original Message----- From: Nivard Ovington Sent: Sunday, November 11, 2012 10:58 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [AUS-NSW] In Remembrance of all Australians and New Zealanders who gave their all In remembrance of all those Australians and New Zealanders who gave their all that we might be free Not forgetting all those family members whose lives were also changed irrevocably Among the many who fell were Malcolm Graeme Maccoll Nationality: Australian Private 5927 18th Bn Australian Infantry, A.I.F.
