ABOUT
THE DESIGN
During the Anzac Day Dawn Service, the Last Post is sounded, followed by a minute of silence to signify the end of the day. It is also sounded at military funerals to indicate that the soldier has gone to his final rest and at commemorative services such as Anzac Day and Remembrance Day.
The bugle call 'Last Post' is inseparably part of the end-of-day traditions, which include Beating the Retreat and Tattoo. Retreat is the older custom dating back to the 16th Century and consisting of prolonged drum beating at sunset to warn the night guard to mount and also to give notice that the gates of the town walls were about to close. Today this latter activity is replaced by the lowering of the National Flag. This bugle call has been passed down through the centuries in many countries of the world as an accompaniment to the impressive rites of a soldier's farewell - the closing bars wail out their sad valediction to the departing warrior.
The custom of waking soldiers to a bugle call dates back to the Roman Legions. When bugle calls were officially introduced into the British System by George III, a special call was written for the waking of troops. This was known as 'Reveille', meaning 'to wake again', from the old French. Joseph Hayden is generally regarded as the composer of the calls which exist substantially unchanged today.
At Anzac Day dawn services, Reveille breaks the silence that follows the playing of the Last Post, symbolising the awakening of the dead in the next and better world.
This design also includes a quote from the Ode, the fourth stanza of the poem For The Fallen by Laurence Binyon. 1919 marked an important date for Binyon’s respectful poem. It was then that this poem was chosen to accompany the unveiling of the London Cenotaph. In 1929, the poem was read at the laying of the Inauguration Stone at the Australian War Memorial. Today, over a century later, it remains a memorial tradition of remembrance for many Commonwealth nations, including Australia.
“They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them."
