Yesterday we did our traditional Marburg Anzac service and as always extremely moving. This year has been the hardest Anzac Day for me. Standing there, I tried to reflect on all the men, women and animals who have served, those who continue to serve, and those who gave their lives in the line of duty. It’s a very emotional day good and bad. Listening to their stories of what they went through to serve our country.
But my thoughts kept coming back to Ben, and what he and his family are going through right now. He gave so much everything for this country, and it’s hard not to feel like we’re falling short in how we support him and others like him.
On a day where we honour sacrifice, courage, and mateship, I can’t help but ask are we truly living up to those values?
Please, Australia, take a moment to reflect not just on the past, but on how we care for our veterans and their families today. Thank you
