===ANZAC Day=== {{Main|ANZAC Day}} [[ANZAC Day]] is a day on which the country remembers those citizens who fell fighting or who served the country in wars. ANZAC Day is commemorated on 25 April every year. The tradition began to remember the [[Australian and New Zealand Army Corps]] (ANZAC) soldiers who [[Battle of Gallipoli|landed]] at [[Gallipoli]] in Turkey during [[World War I]]. ANZAC Day commemoration features marches by veterans and by solemn "Dawn Services", a tradition started in [[Albany, Western Australia|Albany]], Western Australia on 25 April 1923 and now held at [[war memorials]] around the country, accompanied by thoughts of those lost at war to the ceremonial sounds of [[The Last Post]] on the [[Bugle (instrument)|bugle]]. The fourth stanza of [[Laurence Binyon]]'s poem [[s: For the Fallen|For the Fallen]] (known as the "[[Ode of Remembrance]]") is often recited.
