Scarlett O'Hara

I always pin a poppy on me during ANZAC day (early in the year) because it contributes to helping ageing veterans who helped protect our country from war on our shores as Japan was close to Australia and we would have been the next on the list. I have the utmost respect for the veterans, especially because my grandfather was in the second world war (he ended up an alcoholic) and he had constant post traumatic stress disorder because of the horror he witnessed, such as his mates because kill in front of him. If it wasn't for my grandfather successfully getting to the end of the war and defending our allies, he could have been killed and my dad wouldn't exist nor me.
