Massed Pipe Bands at ANZAC Day 2023 🇦🇺

A short march down George St gives us another brief experience of the sight and sound of those Pipes and Drums seen earlier in the Anzac March . This 2023 version is short but i did record the longer 2012 version. The sound attracted a large crowd who followed them into Martin Place. I hope others captured the ceremony at the Cenotaph,laying of wreaths . The original March route from the 50s to recent times went past the Cenotaph in Martin Place so all participants could acknowledge the fallen , usually " eyes right" ...Now that route is not possible due to the trams and Martin Place being redeveloped. It is usual for service associations , Government officials , Consular reps to lay wreaths prior to the March and later . Like the Scottish descendants of veterans. Anzac Day is always April 25 . The history of this day is mentioned above and fully covered in the web pages of the Australian War Memorial in Canberra. All fallen persons who served are recorded at the War Memorial.
