ANZAC biscuits & a happy birthday to moi

They went with songs to the battle, they were young.
Straight of limb, true of eyes, steady and aglow.
They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted,
They fell with their faces to the foe.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning,
We will remember them.

I've always felt fortunate to have been born on this date.
In honor of the fallen, Lest We Forget...
