All fired up for veterans’ visit

VIETNAM veterans Graham Astridge and Wally Sosnowski visited Pakenham Consolidated School last week to share some of their stories and the importance of Anzac Day.
The pair spoke about the meaning of the Last Post and brought in their medals, camouflage nets and some digger bears dressed in army uniform. The students were excited to hear the history behind Anzac Day and had plenty of questions for the two veterans.
