A salue to our Aussie heroes

ANZAC Day, a day of Australian pride, and probably Australia’s most important national occasion.  ANZAC DAY is the special day that marks the anniversary of the first major military action fought by New Zealand and Australian forces in World War One.

As ANZAC DAY approaches on 25 April, we remember these courageous Aussie men and women who took part in various conflicts throughout the twentieth century, right through to today.

To commemorate our heroes, we encourage you to share your ANZAC DAY story, dedicate a message to these special Australians (both fallen and serving), post your personal memory or more... What it means to you to be a proud Australian!

Supported by VB, Last Year’s Raise a Glass Appeal raised over one million dollars, and that total has already been exceeded in 2010. This money is raised to support Australian serving and ex-service men and women, and their families.

The Raise A Glass Appeal returns this April, continuing VB’s partnership Legacy in support of the defence force community.  All funds raised go towards significantly bolstering the welfare programs of Legacy and the RSL.

Lest We Forget.

  • My fond memories are of my grandfather telling me stories of when he was up North on the military base. I was in awe of my grandpop's courage, his wisdom and his sense of national pride. I am by no means a soldier of war, all I have is this small token of appreciation to all the men and women serving this country. And those who have served. Two words... THANK YOU
