hi, what tradition do you have for remembrance day?
No. Holocaust Memorial Day (27 January) is on the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz by the Soviet Army in 1945.
Initially, it was a day of remembrance for those ANZACs who lost their lives at Gallipoli, but it has long since become a day of remembrance for all ANZACs who died in all wars.
Auschwitz was first opened in June 1940 and remained in operation until the Soviet Army liberated the remaining prisoners on January 27, 1945.
The Legions and Veterans organisations are responsible for Remembrance and Veterans Day
