WWII veterans head to Israel - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

Seven World War II veterans have visited the Anzac memorial in Sydney's Hyde Park ahead of their journey to Israel for the dedication of a memorial to the Australian Light Horse.

The Park of the Australian Soldier is at Beersheba, the site of a famous World War I battle involving the Light Horse.

The World War II veterans, aged in their eighties, are attending the ceremony in Israel because there are no surviving Light Horsemen from World War I.

Their stay in Israel will begin with an Anzac Day dawn service at the Mount Scopus Commonwealth War Cemetery in Jerusalem.

Can't find anything at the moment, mate, but the Park of the Australian Soldier appears to be a new development. I imagine there'll be more pics come time of the service/dedication (our Governor-General will be there - former SAS commander).
