Back to ANZAC cove

This is what we have all been looking forward to. Our experience of the commemorative service was so surreal that we needed to make it more concrete with the sharing of stories and viewing of the environments and situations the soldiers were exposed to. Keith Doolan, our historian, was the very person that was able to clearly express this through his passion for military history and the Gallipoli campaign.

 "V Beach" cemetery.



 The Sphinx was named by the soldiers as it was much the same in representation to the one they had previously seen in Egypt

 Shrapnel Valley also the destination of our own personal commemorative service to end our time amongst the spirits of 'the boys'.
