Duke of Edinburgh pays tribute to fallen Australian and New Zealand troops on Anzac Day

The Duke of Edinburgh has led the nation in commemorating Australia and New Zealand’s war losses during a dawn service marking Anzac Day.

The Duke laid a wreath at Hyde Park Corner in London, which is home to war memorials for both southern hemisphere countries.

Anzac Day, April 25, marks the anniversary of the start of the First World War Gallipoli landings and is a national day of remembrance for Australia and New Zealand. There were commemorations across the two countries yesterday.
