On the 25th of April Australians and New Zealanders remember the sacrifice of those Australian and New Zealand servicemen who formed part of the allied expedition that set out to capture the Gallipoli peninsula in 1915. These servicemen became known as the Anzac, and although the Gallipoli campaign failed in its military objectives, actions by the Anzac during the campaign left a powerful legacy for Australia and New Zealand.

Today, Anzac Day has evolved to honour and remember all Australians and New Zealanders – servicemen and women - who have served their country in wars, conflicts and peacemaking operations. Rosemary is traditionally worn on Anzac Day as a sign of remembrance, as it can be found growing on the Gallipoli peninsula.
