Interesting.
Had I read this thread about 7 posts in I would of deleted it. Saying that, lets try to not make it personal ok?
My 2c:
A lot of (I would say most) Australians have not been taught to remember & respect war victims in the same way that countries like the USA do.
If you asked anyone at that game what they thought of the WW1 diggers, I'm sure they would tell you nothing but positive things. Standing in a stadium after a few beers is probably not the best place to remember the dead. A dawn service on ANZAC day would be a better place.
btw We are taught about the landings in Turkey, but not always in detail. I personally took interest in it, as my Great Grandfather died during the withdrawal of troops.
