ANZAC day (the life of a soldier)

ANZAC DAY 

I decided to reinact a video instead of painting.

Remember, O Lord, all those the brave and the true, who have died the death of honour and are departed in the hope of the resurrection to eternal life. In that place of light from which sorrow and mourning are far banished, give them rest, O Lord, thou lover of men.

TRENCH LIFE


In remembrance
Soldiers who died for us

ACTORS 
Me (Navy)
My dad (Army)

We wrote letters to loved ones

Video Of two Soldiers 




PLEASE LAUGH :P lol



Thank you for watching 

Benjamin

  6. Kia ora Benjamin,
    I am working in Tairāwhiti schools, like Mrs Torrie.
    Great to see how much fun you are having recreating being in a trench and fighting like the Anzacs. Could you write a few sentences about how it might have felt to be in the trenches as a soldier.
