Royal Australian Regiment Ode.

Hi All,
I wonder, how many of you knew that The Regiment
had an Ode of their own.I didn't prior to last Anzac Day.

Rest O ye warriors,
You’ll battle no more,
No longer to live, the horrors of war,
Your duty was done with honour and pride,
Farewell O brother,
Until we march by your side.


Quite appropriate I thought.

Regards Kiwi

Kiwi,

Geez you're going blind mate. Back when I knew you it was alcohol induced, what excuse do you have now.

This has been on the website for the last eight years.

And yes I had a good time In Tassie.
