"It had been five years since the outbreak of the third Third World War. Russia had been restored to its full military might after they had eradicated the threats in the Middle East, ending the war on terror. But they had started a new war. The war we all knew would come eventually." Agent Jack Anderson, former Australian SAS soldier promoted to field Agent, is tasked with aiding the New Commonwealth forces in their assault through Europe. Using stealth and hit and run tactics Anderson is able to strike major blows to the new Russian empire! Authors note: hey guys just letting u know, don't expect this to be a work of art, just something I'm doing in my spare time, have fun reading! :) also please excuse the grammar mistakes

"Any Australian will tell you that they value and defend the ANZAC legend, but any Australian will tell you they treasure the Aussie digger." Turlough 'Tom' MacKenna is a rough country boy, raised by his father on the band scales of rural South Australia. Darragh 'Dan' MacKenna is a sophisticated city boy, raised by his mother in the fast moving city of Melbourne. Unknown to each other except by the contact of a few thrown punches, both are on their way to Papua New Guinea as Australian Choco soldiers. As polar opposites Dan and Tom are sure they would never get along but after being captured by the Japanese, they prove that just like the diggers before them, to save their lives mateship, courage, tenacity and maybe a little humour is going to be the only thing keeping them alive. While lost in a jungle so far from home, the two Irish-Australians will find out a lot more about each other than they thought.

"In Flanders Fields" is a war poem in the form of a rondeau, written during the first world war by Canadian Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae. He was inspired to write it on May 3, 1915, after presiding over a funeral of friend and fellow soldier Alexis Helmer, who died in the second battle of Ypres. According to legend, fellow soldiers retrieved the poem after McCrae, initially dissatisfied with his work, discarded it. "In Flanders Fields" was first published on December 8 London-based magazine Punch.

Have you ever wondered what the Australian Walers/Light horses felt when in war? To wonder what they are thinking? Well this is Sundancer's story about what he feels before charging into Beersheba and what his rider Henry felt when loosing someone he loves.

America decides to visit New Zealand on a whim. Unfortunately he chose to visit on the 25th of April. New Zealand and Australia have a very hard time reframing from violence when the loudmouth American crashes the dawn service. Will America realise just how important ANZAC is to them?

The wind ruffled my hair and blew the sea's salty smell into my nose. Excitement was still coursing through my veins. I took another deep breath, inhaling the smell of salt once again. It was nice to be out adventuring rather than being stuck on my little island back home. "Aren't you nervous Oz?" New Zealand asked. " What if something goes wrong." Lest we forget

A school project I have worked on. These letters are not real and are made by me. These letters are based on a man by the name of Matthew Mckenzie, A young man that signs up to take part in World War 1. He later ends up being involved in one of the most least successful battles, Gallipoli, Turkey. *graphic content*
