Anzac Day was first marked in 1915 and it is also celebrated on the 25 of April. It is celebrated on the 25 of April because it is to honor the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps who served and fought for our country.
The aim for the Australian and New Zealand army was to capture dardanelles and clear the path for the Bosphorus and the big black sea. By the end of the campaign Gallipoli was still held by the evil Turkish soldiers.
There were 85,000 Turkish bodies, 44,000 mens from France, 8500 bodies dead from the British army 2779 bodies from Australia and New Zealand.
