    I am very saddened by our treatment of First Australian soldiers, seamen & airmen that fought to preserve our country. It should have been the catalyst of a great union of men & women, black & white, for we are many and we are one... God Bless you all my dear comrades, I love you all for your effort & sacrifice

    v 1:
    Ghosts and memories are loitering still in the corridors of time
    There's sorrow, smoke, and stories in the barracks of my mind
    I'm with him still in the trenches, I can see his dark, brown eyes
    And his courage gave me courage when I was sure we were going to die
    I asked him once why he volunteered for that hellhole far away
    To fight for someone else's king and the land they took away
    He said, "One invading mob's too many" and then he walked away
    And I lost him in the crowds waving flags on the side of the road - like every Anzac Day
    V 2:
    From Murray Bridge and Mundrabilla, from Naracoote and Perth
    First Australian station hands, shearers, gangers, clerks...
    And there was no black, there was no white, just a dirty khaki brown
    And on our upturned slouch hat brims, we all wore the "Rising Sun"
    Soldiers, brothers, all Australians, we had no time for race
    When the bullets are whining past your head, you're all just shades of grey
    He kept his medals in their box in a drawer - he tucked them well away
    But he'd pull them out and put them on and put them back again - on every Anzac Day
    Every Anzac, every Anzac, every Anzac Day - on every Anzac Day
    Armentieres and Flanders, Tarin Kowt and Salamau-Lae
    Amiens and Morotai, Long Tan, Dispersal Bay
    Somalia, Crete and Kapyong, Iraq and the Solomons
    Paschendaele, Maprik and Tarakan - they were there - the first Australians
    V 3:
    And when the show was over and we made it back to Australia's shores
    From Pozieres and Herleville Wood, Benghazi and Fremicourt
    We drifted back into our lives, and we all tried to hide the scars
    Of the tears and fears and terrors that still tracked us down the years
    He tried to join the RSL but the bastards wouldn't let him in
    They didn't see a soldier, just a first Australian
    And I wonder what it was that we fought for and what it was we gave away
    There's reconciliation still to come - on every Anzac Day
    Every Anzac, every Anzac, every Anzac Day - on every Anzac Day
    Coda:
    So when the sun sets in the evening, when the dawn lights up the sky
    We remember those first Australians, who joined and fought and died
    From the missions, bush and station country, towns and Torres Straits
    We remember the fighting First Australians - now - and on every Anzac Day
    Every Anzac, every Anzac, every Anzac Day - on every Anzac Day, on Every Anzac
    Every Anzac, every Anzac, every Anzac Day - on every Anzac Day, on Every Anzac
    On every Anzac Day

      How many Aboriginals served in WW1? This panders to a disproportionate number of first Australians who were supposedly badly treated. I don't see many German New Guineans nor German Samoans complaining about coming under the British Crown nearly 110 years later. The Australians for one weren't conscripted but this business over reconciliation does it take into consideration how many Maoris out of the just over 3000 native born New Zealanders complained about their treatment or service in the AIF in World war 1? Incidentally the last count was 14 Maori soldiers.

      I have to say, I was proud as punch to be asked to make this filmclip and participate in the recognition of a long ignored group of servicemen and women. For a long term Redgum fan and former member of the Australian Army, this was a dream come true. I don't give two hoots which General directed that money and resources be made available, the fact is a debt of honour was being addressed.
      And when a Chief of Army gives that Army a boot in the arse, there is usually a good reason. As there was in the case of General Morrison.
