Loddon HERALD

COMMUNITIES across the Loddon stood silent in reflection and remembrance on Tuesday, the 108th anniversary of the landing of Australian and New Zealand soldiers at Gallipoli.

From services of commemoration and gunfire breakfasts at Dawn to short marches to town war memorials, Loddon residents joined with veterans of later conflicts in honouring service and sacrifice of soldiers, sailors, airmen and nurses in war on ANZAC Day.

Jack and Jayde Gleisner (main picture) at the Tarnagulla Dawn service were among many youngsters involved in local commemorations.

RSL sub-branches and community groups partnered to mark Australia’s national day of remembrance with Murray Kellar (above) one of the proud flag bearers at Korong Vale.
