“The response has been incredible. We have been so pleased to find so many World War II veterans who want to make this trip with us, and we have been overwhelmed by just how many people in this community want to support this effort as a way of showing their appreciation to our veterans.”
Jeff Miller
“The Caucus I joined in 1953 had as many Boer War veterans as men who had seen active service in World War II, three from each. The Ministry appointed on 5th December 1972 was composed entirely of ex-servicemen: Lance Barnard and me.”
Gough Whitlam
“Honor our Veterans for the valor and courage of these brave souls in defending this great country, at all costs. In war, all soldiers end up with wounds. The gratitude for their undying effort should never sleep or be forgotten for our patriots. May we recognize and celebrate all men and women of the armed forces by displaying our flags. In freedom and liberty may our flags wave, especially over the graves of those who have given their lives to protect us. ~Tom Baker”
