Both my Dad's Avoriginal and Eastern Band Cherokee great grandfathers were ANZACS in Gallipoli. His Easterly Band Cherokee ancestor joined the army after going over to the UK, where he met his Scottish wife, and signed up to for "The Australian Imperial Army" to be infantry for Gallipoli. He died on rememberance day in 1932 when my nan's mum was a kid, he got hit by a tram. His name was Lee Tinsley, and he was born in Tennessee, and died in sydney. So while an Anzac, he was also an American.

When I was playing soccer as a student in the University of Alabama I was 75Kg, back in the late '70s - early '80s. After I stopped playing soccer until I completed my military service in Greece in 1987, I was 85-87 Kg. Later in the 90s, as a Judo athlete I reached 95-97 Kg. Now I made it to 120 Kg of fat, fun and good times, so when I watch these videos of commando training, I am right there with them... but only mentally. 🤣🤣🤣

What are you on about, it’s not an Anti Vietnam war song. It was exactly that an explanation of the trauma of that war.the only fault in this song was the part about when man landed on the moon, he died in July but was going home in June, it’s out of time it means he only just started his tour.Canungra and Shoal water were training grounds, one still used for multi National training and Townsville largest northern army base and port for departures.

@@tankmeister8131 thanks for sharing your perspective! That part of the song was deliberately put in there; it was not a is tame. The reason why he was still in country in July for the moon landing was because his tour got extended. He should have returned home in June. Also, it is a song about a soldiers trauma, which can also be classified as an ant war song. But music and art is in the eye of the beholder. If you don’t feel it’s an anti-war song, then it’s not, for you. 💙

One of my grandfathers was in the second wave of soldiers from Australia entering Gallipoli. Fortunately/Unfortunately, he became ill and was repatriated. That was the start of intergenerational trauma in our family, I am the third, and it has still been awful. I hope that I have lessened the load for my kids. That grandfather was involved in WWII, as was my father. Towards the end of the war, when he was old enough to join the Navy, he was on the first ship in the Pacific War that was hit by Kamikazies. After being repaired by the Americans, the ship joined the American 5th Fleet to liberate the Phillippines. At the beginning of that campaign, the ship was hit by 5 Kamikazes over three days, and he was injured. My other grandfather ran away from Broken Hill, one of Australia's remote towns, as a young teen. His next record is in the UK at the beginning of WWI, where he learned to be a fighter pilot. Apparently, he kept crashing on landing, so his pilot career was over relatively quickly. I think it is odd that the RAF leaders moved him to be a driver for the RAF Officers (which I always have a laugh at).
@jpmasters-ausКүн бұрын
My father and I didn't have a great relationship. But there is always one thing that I will never forget and give him respect for. When he was around other military people who fought in the Pacific War, most of them still had a grievance against the Japanese people. He didn't. He believed that most of those fighting on the Japanese side were just like him, doing what their country and leaders expected. (I acknowledge there were some absolutely awful treatment of our prisoners by the Japanese). He would never allow a negative word about Japan or Japanese people in our house. My parents had a Japanese exchange student living with them for about three months. My Dad insisted that I go to Japan early in my travel life, and the connection from the Exchange Student provided a great entry point. I asked him why he wanted me to go to Japan. He thought that if people had connections with other people in countries from prior wars, we might be able to use all of our connections to try and divert everyone from another war like WWII.

There is a great book, "In Great Spirits" by Archie Barwick. It is basically a condensation of the 26 odd journals he wrote while serving in the 1st Battalion AIF who landed at Gallipoli and served through the entire war. He later attributed his journal keeping as the main thing that kept him sane. There is multiple notable sections in the book, such as being in the rear camping alongside allied artillery in 1917 and not being able to keep candles lit as the concussion of the big guns kept blowing them out, but one of the poignant ones is on one of the last pages, in 1919 on his way home. He muses that he is done with war, is sick of it and would never serve again unless in direct defense of Australia, but he was glad he did serve, and would not change his decision for the world as "How can you love something and not fight for it? And how can you fight if you don't love something?"

Officially, at first light 2 cooks (or 2 scouts depending on the source) of a British regiment were following behind looking for food, and were met by the Jerusalem mayor and his delegation, who tried to surrender. Being low rank, they refused and after a few hours, Brigadier General Watson from the 180th brigade of the 60th Division of the British army finally met them to accept surrender. by this time the town was in the hands of the Australians. On Dec 10th, they Lighthorse were ordered to withdraw and encamp a few miles away.
