I also wanted to attend the Closing Ceremony. Dr Brendan Nelson is now the Director of the War Memorial and recently introduced a longer closing ceremony which starts at 4:55pm. They sing the National Anthem, lay some wreaths, have a short piece on one of the soldiers from the Honour Board then play the Last Post. It was quite brief and simple but quite moving and makes you reflect on the sacrifice that so many people have given for our country.
