ANZAC
Day is an important day for the Odd Bods family, and yet the current pandemic
has restricted our ability to celebrate in the normal way. We will miss the get
together, the camaraderie, and the telling of stories. But maybe we can all
share our thoughts, and add to the recognition of the day in another way.
We
invite you to send us your stories or comments on ANZAC Day for sharing with
other members. You might like to use the themes, “What ANZAC Day means to me”,
or “My special memories of ANZAC Day”. You might like to recall particular
ANZAC Day events, the experience of marching, comrades, family members, or
stories from history. Keep it short (maximum 300 words) or if you prefer, a
simple comment or perhaps a photograph or two. If you are sending a photograph
please explain why it is important to you.
We
will post the contributions on the FOTOBAI website and share with the Odd Bods
family. In recognition of these special circumstances a Last Post Award (a $100
Shrine shop online gift voucher) will be granted to the most worthy
contribution.
How to post -
perhaps the simplest way is to email the editor (gregandsuesmith@iinet.net.au)
with your story and/or photograph. Alternatively you can post a comment
directly from this article (see Comment option below). Or, if you prefer, message, or call Greg Smith on 0406222020.
Please
get your comments, stories, and/or photographs to us by midnight 24th April.
Friends of the Odd Bods will join
many other individuals, groups, and associations as we continue to remember
ANZAC sacrifices and the importance of this day to all servicemen and their
families in 2020.
