My awareness has been heightened by attending dawn services and visiting places like Al Alamein, Kokoda, etc. Not by watching footy.
Mine as well BUT by having "events" celebrating ANZAC Day has definitely improved the awareness of ANZAC Day. To say otherwise is ignorance to what has happened. 20 years ago it was a small event, losing it's relevance especially compared to today.
I don't care how people discover or learn about ANZAC Day and gain an AWARENESS what it stands for. The great thing is they do and as a country we are becoming more united towards our Military and our history. Kids now have a greater understanding than ever before.
Nothing but positives IMO.
