Wow! The UK was under imminent threat, EVERYONE underestimated what Japan could and would do, and you are still angry that the UK could not rush maximum forces to protect us?
Remember even the US saw defeat of Germany as the priority, hence sending 90% of their army to the European Theatre of Operations. (Europe did not have much scope for naval ops, so USN could concentrate their efforts there)
@goddek While I agree with your sentiment, Australia never had a culture of going armed in public, so even before the government stole our guns, there would not have been armed citizens to take action
@Allen048047991@DefiantLs If you want fair competition, then just one tee, men’s or women’s does not matter, otherwise you are handicapping some participants
@tobytarrant Sorry to shatter your dreams, no Aussie felt it, Stokes is just a name pushed at us every few years as some sort of scary visage, but in reality we do not rate home or care about him

Pull your head in you moron, ANZAC day has always been about honouring the fallen of ANZAC along with their allies, and in due course even their enemies
There was attached to ANZAC at Gallipoli the 29th Indian Brigade which included the 14th King George's Own Ferozepore Sikhs!
Overall India provided many more Divisions to Empire forces in both world wars than Australia did, though often in different theatres of combat.
@HaveeSnowball You could equally ask why they are dressed as officers, Sam Brown belts, while doing other ranks rifle drill - while done with the right intent, these are just people doing dress ups with out a proper understanding of history or the military
Sorry but you are barking up the wrong tree, you would still be unable to sell beef in Australia, because we prefer our much tastier pasture raised beef, we only do feedlots for export markets - just ask Starbucks what happens when you try to sell a product to American taste here in Aus, it does not work
