1971 - ERIC BOGLE, "AND THE BAND PLAYED 'WALTZING MATHIDA'"

In Response To: Reader: "SABATON - Christmas Truce (Official Music Video)" (8-1/2 mins, cc) (hobie)
Back in the late '80s, I first became acquainted with Eric Bogle's song commemorating the Battle of Gallipoli when I heard Priscilla Herdman's interpretation on my stereo system - an experience that has stuck with me over the years. The following YouTube video features the vocals of the Australian singer-songwriter and includes still images from WWI.

****Annotation added 24 Feb 2014: "In all, some 480,000 Allied forces took part in the Gallipoli Campaign, at a cost of more than 250,000 casualties, including some 46,000 dead. On the Turkish side, the campaign also cost an estimated 250,000 casualties, with 65,000 killed." Source: https://www.history.com/topics/world-war-i/battle-of-gallipoli-1
****Note added 25 April 2010:
When I was asked to create this presentation for a Remembrance Day assembly, I didn't know how I would show an "anti-war" song at an event that is supposed to honour our veterans. At the same time, war and military conflict was such a distant concept for our students, I wanted to some how make history relevant to them, let alone an "Australian" song that most of the our middle school students have never heard.
The more I listened to Bogle's words, the more I realized that this song was about more than a moment in history. It's about how history repeats itself and the great sacrifices that are made during war and how futile it all is if we fail to learn from our mistakes.
Making the transition from B/W to full colour to coincide with Bogle's words "We started all over again," I wanted to show how war is part of our past, present and (unfortunately) future.
