1 In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scare heard amid the guns below. (from ‘In Flanders Fields’, John McCrae, )

2 The landing at Anzac, April 25, 1915 by Charles Dixon.

3 Anzac Day was first marked in 1916.
The day has gone through many changes since then. The ceremonies that are held at war memorials up and down New Zealand, or in places overseas where New Zealanders gather are rich in tradition and ritual befitting a military funeral.  

4 The red poppy a symbol of war remembrance the world over.
People in many countries wear the poppy to remember those who died in war or who still serve. In many countries, the poppy is worn around Armistice Day (11 November), but in New Zealand it is around Anzac Day, 25 April.
