I said 'virtually' impossible. Be realistic tw. The bodies are littered all over the place, and not just Australian ones. Turks as well, and NZers, on top of other allies and troops involved in the battle.

I'm sure being a knowledgable person you know what happened at gallipoli. Consider that and then you'll know.

Incidentally, Australia is still retrieving bodies from Vietnam and other wars we've been involved in too. There's nothing new about that concept.

I have only said the same thing you have. Its not impossible. Its simply a question of how much one needs to 'honor' them. It is only impossible because the cost does not justify the tribute. Or as you phrased it, "virtually impossible". Same thing.
