ANZAC Day Initiative - The Last Post Award - Inviting Your Contributions




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.
