This is a genuine ex army land cruiser ..used by NORFORCE I believe. I wonder if the diggers knew they were riding in an 'enemy' car.

ANZAC day in Batlow
The Batlow march is at 15:00 so the Tumbarumba pipe band can lead their march and then regroup to lead the Batlow march. The boys marched with their school groups.

This was the first wet ANZAC march I have attended, the crowd was about half of normal numbers. With th rain and icey wind the guard still stood perfectly still and refused the comfort of having umbrellars held over them.
( I did inform parens that I was taking pictures for MLU ).

Small towns
Dawn service in Orange, big crowd, lots of young people some still in PJ,s. Onto Millthorpe for a 7.30 ceremony, then Carcour, Mandurama, then Lyndhurst, different school kids, each town has a few vets, But the band plays on, after lunch the band goes to Woodstock near Cowra it is that towns last march. Must give the pipe band a rap they have been doing this circuit since 1956 which now includes Neville the sunday before, Great job. Two vehicles this year.

At Yass
Anzac Day in Yass was well attended. The march was led by our military vehicles carrying WWII diggers and a pipe band then the marchers consisting of the rest of the diggers from the local area, the local schools were well attended, which is good too see, a good roll up of army cadets attended as well. The guest speaker was a New Zealander who has served in the NZ army as well as the
Australian army bringing the true meaning of ANZAC to Yass. On the 24th they had a service at the RSL retirement home where my father resides and we had 3 vehicles on display for them. We had the carrier at the home as well as the march and when you get the carrier out on the open road they handle a lot better. Max
