Today on #AnzacDay we remember not only the Australian & New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) soldiers who died on 25 April 1915 and throughout the Gallipoli campaign, but every one who has served and died in all wars, conflicts, and peacekeeping operations. ❤️ #LestWeForget
@AWMemorial We will remember them. Lest we forget 🇦🇺🇳🇿
@AWMemorial @PaulineHansonOz They gave their lives to preserve our freedom. The respect shown at our dawn service this morning shows that they have not been forgotten.
The @AWMemorial has long been the heart of the longstanding #AnzacDay tradition. Tomorrow’s Anzac Day Dawn Service will be broadcast nationally on ABC iview from 5:30 am AEST: ab.co/4auIOuK Find out more: bit.ly/3PW8vMf NAA: A6135, K30/4/84/17

Great to host @KarlJames_1945 from @AWMemorial in Townsville in the lead up to Anzac Day
Women veterans have unique challenges, histories and experiences, both while serving and after their service. Our #DidYouKnow series highlights how far we have come, who we are, and where we need to get to. Join us every Wednesday! #CelebrateWomenVeterans #veterans
@AWMemorial we’re getting low on these #DidYouKnow facts…I think a visit to the memorial is needed!
Register for a ride to the Anzac Day ceremonies at @AWMemorial. Free travel on Transport Canberra buses to the Dawn Service will depart from major interchanges. Looped services are available from Russell and Canberra Centre for both ceremonies. Register: eventbrite.com.au/o/transport-ca…
@AWMemorial This tweet about accessibility was right above yours, and I just thought I’d check whether you include alt text with images you post? I think it’s quite important that we include accessible options, so it would be great if you’d do this. x.com/a11yawareness/…
When you don't add alt text to your images you tweet, the default alt text is "Image." That doesn't give blind or low-vision users any understanding of the content or context of the image. Always add alt text.
Great to spend some time today showing one of our colleagues from Singapore around the @AWMemorial galleries, and of course attending a very moving Last Post Ceremony. It’s a privilege to be able to work in an area I’m so passionate about and to share that passion with others!
Took the opportunity to visit some of 'my' boys while I wandered through the cloisters @AWMemorial the other day. ('My' defined as those I am researching or have researched).
A couple of years ago I contacted @AWMemorial about adding one of the 5 Australians killed in the Great Escape in the Commemorative Roll. Earlier this week I 'visited' Thomas Barker Leigh. His ‘cheerful, boyish face’ remained a sad memory for one friend.
@AWMemorial It is wonderful that it has been shared with the AWM. It is a beautiful poem that perfectly describes this great country. Thank you to Kevin and Shanrah.
I visited the @AWMemorial Hall of Memory yesterday. It's been a while. Such sombre beauty. I was in awe.
Heading off to a secret location tomorrow, to talk about one of my favourite bomber pilots. All will be revealed in due course.
Exhausting morning filming at a secret location, for a secret project. Full details in due course! And no, that's not my dirty laundry being aired.
@AWMemorial It is a very spectacular event, very glad I went to 1.
