ANZAC DAY 25 APRIL 2021 WE WILL REMEMBER THEM During World War One 416,809 Australians enlisted to serve - many never returned. The Australians displayed great courage, endurance, initiative, discipline and mateship. Such qualities came to be known as the ANZAC spirit. 15,485 Tasmanians enlisted in World War One and today more than 10,500 war veterans and ex-service personnel live in Tasmania. This year is the first ANZAC Day where we recognise Tasmania’s most recent Victoria Cross recipient, Ordinary Seaman Edward “Teddy” Sheean. LEST WE FORGET On 25 April each year we call for Tasmanians to remember the sacrifice of all Australians who served our country.
