that "last post" is a haunting piece of music. It is a time of sad but proud reflection, but at the same time, I got great joy when I used to see the old diggers parade down the street and get the accolades they so richly deserve. Time has caught up with them and now they are all gone, but in my lifetime, I will not forget them!
Trying to explain war to a 5 yr old is a hard thing and I hope she understands what has gone before her.
