Dawn Service Gallipoli, Turkey - ANZAC Day 2013 

Australians will always respect and have a special bond with the people of Turkey.

In Anatolia, we call that cove the ANZAC COVE. Those young and brave Anzac soldiers deserved to own that cove forever. greeetings from Gallipoli.

"Those heroes that shed their blood and lost their lives... you are now lying in the soil of a friendly country. Therefore rest in peace. There is no difference between the Johnnies and the Mehmets to us where they lie side by side here in this country of ours... You the mothers who sent their sons from far away countries wipe away your tears. Your sons are now lying in our bosom and are in peace. After having lost their lives on this land they have become our sons as well." M. Kemal Atatürk

Lest We Forget ! Peace Be Upon The Fallen of ANZAC's and Turkish army !

!God bless Turkey & Turkish people!

Dayumm those turks are soo damnn strong

As Respect I say: Congrats U've conquered Gallipoli - respect from Turkey

I never heard commands so sweetly given. I think the old Diggers would appreciate that. Respect and gratitude.

I have forgotten my name and my rank,i have lost my dog-tags and my gun,my boots long gone and my uniform in tatters,i am wondering in the desert trying to find my way back home. I have left with no family and friends to leave a bunch of flowers on my grave and wipe my tombstone clean for i have no grave. Only odd tired nightingales stop by and sing a song of sorrow.So all i do is to feed the wild poppies with my flesh and colour them dark red with my blood,and if you see an odd pink one,well,, it has been nearly 100 years since i shook the hands of my brothers in arm and saw them charging and jumping over my dead body. Promise me lad next time on ANZAC day to buy yourself a red poppy and pin it proudly on you jacket close to your heart for all to see,and put the palm of your right hand on it and say "Lets not forget" say it load ""LETS NOT FORGET"" those that were fallen and left behind,those that have no grave and no tombstones,those like me who are called """UNKNOWN SOLDIERS"" With deepest respect and sorrow in the centenary of the first world war to all who were fallen and never came home regardless of their nationalities,because they were all SOLDIERS.

Those heroes that shed their blood and lost their lives... You are now lying in the soil of a friendly country. Therefore rest in peace. There is no difference between the Johnnies and the Mehmets to us where they lie side by side now here in this country of ours... you, the mothers, who sent their sons from faraway countries wipe away your tears; your sons are now lying in our bosom and are in peace. After having lost their lives on this land. They have become our sons as well." M.KEMAL ATATÜRK

After hearing a few of the stories, there was a Little likeness between us even before aussie and turk faced of. The turks sounded like they were as much larakins as our own blokes lol. I hope turks can understand, that the aussies are a strange breed. if you cant knock ya m8, if ya dont have a drink with a guy after a bar brawl....yer not aussie. I think this is what brought turks closer to us. Its just a basic humanity after suffering. It is only right.

the anzacs are always welcome to our land they are honoroble persons.

A very moving tribute.

Next to having sex there's nothing that humans like doing more than bleeding together.

Were the Anthems played at all?

LEST WE FOGET

Respect to all the ottomans anzuks kiwis and brits who died in the gallipoli

The ANZACS fought the Ottoman Turks because the Ottoman Empire was allied with Germany in WW1

The person commanding the soldiers sounds like a 8 yr old girl...
