Remembrance Day

At Remembrance Day services being held across Australia, today we remember the armistice which ended the Great War and the sacrifice of our armed forces in times of conflict.

On Remembrance Day we stop and observe that moment when the guns fell silent.

We remember the Australians who have given their lives in the service of our nation and in the defence of our values.

They are our nation’s sons and daughters.

May our country’s remembrance of them and their sacrifice remain ever strong.

Lest we forget.
