Anzac (acronym for Australian and New Zealand
Army Corps), is a general term for all troops
of both countries serving in WORLD_WAR_I and
to some extent those in WORLD_WAR_II.
The date of their World War I landing in
Gallipoli, Turkey, 25 April 1915, is marked
by a public holiday, Anzac Day, in both
Australia and New Zealand.
