Member for Burnett Stephen Bennett joined residents at a number of ANZAC services across the region today to pay tribute to the memories of fallen soldiers, including the Woodgate Beach Dawn Service and Bundaberg Civic Service.
“Every year our local Anzac services seem to grow, with many locals coming together to pay their respects to those courageous men and women who have paid the ultimate sacrifice for the freedom we have today,” Mr Bennett said.
“It’s touching to see so many people, particularly the younger generations, taking the time to remember and honour those who have served, and those who continue our nation.
“Today we stood side by side in solidarity to pause and reflect on those sacrifices and what it has meant for our country and our freedom.
“We remember not only the original ANZACs, but commemorate more than a century of service by Australian servicemen and women.”
