I love these old pictures !! .... there's quite a few on here if you feel like browsing !! They show New Zealand and Australian troops taking part in two victory parades - the Lord Mayor's Procession, held just before the signing of the armistice on 11 November 1918, and the Dominion troops victory march in May 1919. http://www.flickr.com/photos/nationallibrarynz_commons/sets/72157610011235962/
Well done LA, Some wonderful shots there. Fascinating shots of the captured aircraft, the civvies would have loved seeing them. Cheers GW
No I didn't LA, I'm about to follow the link. Having just arrived back from Gallipoli, this may not be a good idea. Getting off the bus at Anzac Cove, I was actually blubbering. Thank god I was surrounded by other Aussies. No one said a word. I had wanted to go there since I was about eight years of age. El Alamein was a bonus. Cheers GW
Did you see the Gallipoli ones too GW ? gave me goosebumps !! Just finished looking at the photos. Very moving. Can't believe I was standing at ANZAC Cove & looking up at the Phinx. WOW! Thanks for posting. Cheers GW
