Gallipoli 100: Anzac address - Sir Jerry Mateparae

In his Anzac Day address, Governor-General Sir Jerry Mateparae said the gathering was not to glorify war - "but rather to remember the men and women who served their country, and especially those who made the ultimate sacrifice". After World War I, the remains of so many young men lay, often in unmarked graves, on the other side of the world, he said. "Our memorials were, and remain, shrines for the nation's grief, erected as places where bereaved families and communities could go to pay their respects.
