That's excellent Howard! I understand how proud you must feel. If we had known, Mrs B and I would have driven to Wagga Wagga to see that for ourselves. Our lad wasn't free to join us until mid/late afternoon, so Dawn Service, parade, etc. could have been attended anywhere we pleased. We haven't been to a parade or Dawn Service in our own town in past 2 years either, for exactly same reason. Next year we will be though, as I think we just presumed having us around for ANZAC Day would be what Bryce wanted. In retrospect, maybe not. Independence is a double edged sword.

The photos are fine.
