Today is ANZAC Day in Australia and New Zealand. On ANZAC day we remember the contribution and suffering of those who served and died in all wars, conflicts, and peacekeeping operations. At 96 years old, World War Two veteran Bob Semple is a man from a different time and he remembers those times like they were yesterday. We can learn facts and figures about the war and those days by reading history books, but by talking to someone who was actually there we can start to get a sense of what it might have been like to experience those events as a human being. It was a privilege and an honour to have Bob as a guest. Lest we forget.
