NZ 2015 50c ANZAC Australia-New Zealand Joint Issue PNC

A century has passed since the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC) was formed in Egypt, prior to deployment to Gallipoli. The Australian and New Zealand troops landed to the north of British and French troops at what became known as Anzac Cove; the men themselves consequently became known as Anzacs. After Gallipoli, ANZAC was disbanded and reformed into I ANZAC Corps and II ANZAC Corps, and then sent to the Western Front. An ANZAC Mounted Division was also formed in 1916, serving in Sinai and Palestine.
