- Corporal Matthew Creek of the Royal Military College Band plays The Last Post at the Australian War Memorial, Canberra. The Last Post is one of a number of bugle calls in military tradition that mark the phases of the day. In military tradition, the Last Post is the bugle call that signifies the end of the day's activities. It is also sounded at military funerals to indicate that the soldier has gone to his final rest and at commemorative services such as ANZAC Day and Remembrance Day.

This was played at my dads funeral, coffin draped in the Australian flag and fellow Air Force men saluting. I'll never forget it.

I like this.
Who ever disliked this should be ashamed, men laid down their lives to save us and our country. To save us going through and to war, to bring peace to our land and joy back home
nah don't worry they from australia
They also fought so we can express our thoughts without fear and retribution, such as disliking a video on CZcams.
yea, that is really disrespectfull whoever did that
Wtf @welyn’s lost pumpkin you b***h
Weylns lost pumpkin I forgot to say he is such a terd that message was to him
My great grandfather (my dad’s side of the family) was an air pilot in WW2. I never knew him personally as he passed away years ago but I honour his memory every ANZAC Day and Remembrance Day.
They are sad days but days for respecting and honouring my late family member. They will be missed regardless. I love my family dearly.
This was played at my grandads funeral today and it was one of the hardest days i have ever came up on rest in peace to all of the soldiers that have died for our country x
RIP to all those who died fighting for their country 🌹
***** So is Britain...

Let us commemorate those who have fought for us once more.

This hits hard, it was played at my grandads funeral as he served in the nz army and today also marks the day my great great uncle died going over the top at The Somme. RIP Peter Tier (grandad) and RIP Pvt Malcolm McCall
Rest in peace Peter Tier and Malcolm McCall
Don't forget the New Zealanders. Thats why it's called ANZAC day. Australia New Zealand Army Corps.
Rest In peace Grandfather...
Same here......
William Brightwell I agree that ANZAC day is for both countries, as you said, that's what the corp is made from, but I believe the last post is played in many military in other countries too. Who does not like the last post, obviously, has no respect for what it stands for, and also, does not have any appreciation to music itself. Playing the (trumpet) bugel is not a piece of cake.
God bless their souls. Lest We Forget!
Robertino Galea That is a great point. Thank you for saying this.
Robertino Galea A bugle is not a trumpet.
Sailor Man Thanks Sailor Man, my apologies 'cos I know that, but that was my bad of course, a trumpet is much easier to play, and I know better :-).

Terrorist nation
Today's politicians sometimes make nationalist statements, but as a Turk, I can say that we are aware of the difficult conditions both Turkish and Anzac soldiers fought and sacrificed in the war in Gallipoli, and we share the same pain. Finally, I would like to share the message that Atatürk, the founder of democratic and secular Turkey, sent to the family of Anzac soldiers: " Those heroes that shed their blood and lost their lives ... You are now lying in the soil of a friendly country. Therefore rest in peace. There is no difference between the Johnnies and the Mehmets to us where they lie side by side here in this country of ours ... You, the mothers who sent their sons from faraway countries, wipe away your tears; your sons are now lying in our bosom and are in peace. After having lost their lives on this land they have become our sons as well."
Very well said, war is madness, we must all preserve the peace bye reconciliation.
The hope and comfort of his words fills my heart. Would that politicians step aside and allow we who have seen the horror of war first hand sit down with our honored brothers from the other side and make peace.
This eulogy by Atatürk has, yet again, brought tears to my eyes. His words sanctified the soil of those Tommies’ graves. Such a compassionate, generous, and forward-looking statesman; certainly an equal to Churchill, Roosevelt, Selassie, et al. Where are such men today, when they are needed more than ever? Why are they so rarely encountered?
I never knew this. Thank you for sharing.

The last post always makes me cry,
I’m just standing there tearing up.

Remembrance Day today “lest we forget the 11th of November” 🇦🇺
Ngl me and the kids at my school would always die trying not to laugh when this played at school every Remembrance Day. Like we fr had to practice listening to this and not laughing the day before the school assembly. I had no idea how serious this is until way later.
On this day, 1915. 104 years ago, two young nations made their debut on the world stage. Australia and New Zealand.
Through a baptism of fire.
trudging through the depths of hell.
The sacrifice of many, mates, brothers and cousins.
They died in hell, but they reside in heaven.
They will never be forgotten, we thank you from now, to eternity.
Lest we forget.
Today is the day :(
Thank you for fighting in war

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie,
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
Why that is the saddest thing in history .New Zealand has suffered in fate but we are strong.God bless you.
This is always sad to read. Thank you for typing it out so I could read it again. Lest we forget

Lest we forget. Honor those brave men and women who fought for freedom. Their legacy will memorized forever.
Rest In Peace, my dear brother Leslie John Mark Dennis, 1961 - 1996, never strong enough to serve our country as a warrior, but played The Last Post beautifully. Though a warrior he was, fighting a lifelong battle with asthma which lead him to the bugle, trumpet, French horn, and ultimately electric guitar. Though his body lost the war in 1996 with two burst lungs, his music, spirit and memory live on in thousands of lives he touched, and souls saved through his ministry as a youth pastor. I can't wait to see you again, Les. XO.
My grandad used to play the Reveille at wake-up and the Last Post at day's end, during his national service (Polish Army).
He was buried today, played out by a trumpeter, like him. Unfortunately I couldn't attend (COVID) but I had a few cans of his favourite beer and a few pieces of his favourite ham and kielbasa and I look forward to going and paying my respects when I can.
They don't make men like him anymore, that's for sure; but we can try to follow the example he set.
RIP
Thanks for the post Michael. We're sorry to hear of your loss and hope you are doing OK.
I'm pretty sure my great great grandpa was in this war, he fought for our beautiful country, I'm so glad.
The world owes a deep debt of gratitude to the ANZACS whose contributions and sacrifices are not always appreciated as they should be, deepest respect and regards from an old Pomm.
We honour those who served greatly on this special day!
We shall not forget.
Anzac is coming. Australia isn’t giving up. Thank you Australian soldiers for defending us. Lest we forget
