Thanks for telling me about ANZAC day. I knew there was a reason I got up early and marched with my "mates"...
As far as the atrocities committed by the Light Horse. Well lets leave that one to history. There's a lot more to that story than is written on "Wikipedia".
I will say that in my experience professional soldiers are just that, professional.
They get the horrible job done as efficiently as possible.
