FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda Robyn Blanch was three years old when her father was killed in World War II.
She was given support and services by Legacy, a charity that provides services to the wives and families of men killed in war.
Ms Blanch is now a member of the Blue Bells, a group that raises money for the charity.
“Legacy provided medical help, dental help, educational help, holidays,” Ms Blanch said.
“When we were young there were so many more orphans that they had a huge club, which ran four nights a week in Sydney.”
These meetings had up to 300 attendees a night.
It was here that Ms Blanch met life-long friends Lyn Dawkin and Leslie Bromly, with whom she marched side-by-side in the Anzac Day parade on Wednesday.
Though Legacy no longer operates on the scale it did in the post-WWII era, it continues to provide vital support to the families of soldiers killed in battle.
First Balmain scout leader Sarah Pond was one of hundreds of volunteers collecting money for legacy on Wednesday.
They were also handing out sprigs of Rosemary.
“The rosemary is a tradition from Gallipoli,” Ms Pond said.
“The soldiers used to hand it out to each other as a sign of friendship.”
Camaraderie and friendship are the foundations of the Legacy philosophy, which is based the promise of a soldier to a dying mate to “look after the missus and kids”.
Legacy currently cares for 100,000 widows and 1900 children and disabled dependants across Australia.
