Kia ora my uncle

I am the son of Jane Tango, newphew to James. Aroha mai Uncle

Kia ora Whanau

Anzac Day seems to have become a very special and dedicated day to the Soldiers who fought for our freedom as Kiwi's today, I am proud to have Uncles, Grandfathers, Great Grandfathers and Great uncles who fought for our freedom, one uncle is buried in Passendale, and it will one day be my dream to go and pay respects to a young man who lost his life in WW1. As for the Maori Battalion, it uplifts my belief in the hard working, strong young men, who acknowledge Whakawhanaungatanga in their daily lives to fight for there whanau and mokopuna. Greatest respect from me to you Papa...Aroha mai
