It's ANZAC day tomorrow here. It commemorates the fallen soldiers of all the wars that the ANZACS,( Australian and New Zealand Army Corps) but it celebrates all the services, Army, Navy and Air force. The Merchant Marines are starting also to be recognized as many died during the war in the convoys and other operations. And the women who served overseas and at home. I was listening to a lady who's mother worked in a factory making hand grenades and shells, and she said that women wearing 'bobby pins' in their hair sometimes set off a bomb and it took a while for them to correlate the two factors. In America I think the equivalent is Memorial Day.

I thought they called them "Kirby grips" in Australia/New Zealand?

My Mom worked in a munitions factory for a while when she was still in Scotland, during the war;
