    Australian visitors attend the wreath-laying ceremonies at the Australian National Memorial in Villers-Bretonneux, northern France, during Anzac Day, April 25. The ceremony marks the 94th anniversary of the recapture of the village of Villers-Bretonneux on April 25,1918.

    Australians and New Zealanders take part in a dawn service, part of Anzac Day commemorations, April 25, at Gallipoli, to mark the anniversary of the ill-fated landing of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) during World War I. More than 10,000 New Zealand and Australian servicemen died in the failed eight-month campaign on the peninsula, and Gallipoli has become a defining symbol of courage and comradeship for the two nations.
