The Anzac Day Dawn Services in Sydney and Melbourne have been marred by booing during the Welcome to Country acknowledgment.

I feel sorry for the serviceman doing the "welcome" but leave these welcomes OUT of services like this. It's in very bad taste imo.

Should it be done at an Anzac Day service? Absolutely NOT!

I feel so sorry for the poor soldiers who died on foreign soil -

why were we in Gallipoli? -

cause Churchill said it was a good idea?

They died for THEIR country and our freedoms. They don't need to be "welcomed" to their/our own country.

It's an insult.

The eternal flame burns to remind of those sacrificed in fire of war.
Lest we forget.
