Tony Rees thoughts on 'And The Band Played Waltzing Matilda' (50) RE: thoughts on 'And The Band Played Waltzing Matilda' 26 Apr 23


Just giving this thread a nudge as Anzac Day has just been and gone here (Australia). Amazing to think that Eric wrote this one 52 years ago now.

"Year by year, their numbers get fewer"... presumably written about the original Anzacs, all gone in the intervening time. "Some day no-one will march there at all". True regarding the veterans of Gallipoli, but not by those who honour them: The NSW veterans capturing the Anzac Day spirit
