Brian Grundy, 73, a former Royal Artillery bandsman from Bolton, Lancashire, England, says a silent prayer at the grave of a family member, Private H. Grundy of the East Lancashire Regiment who died on August 19, 1915 of wounds received in Gallipoli, during an ANZAC Day commemoration service at Pieta Military Cemetery outside Valletta April 25, 2002.

During the Gallipoli campaign in World War One, hundreds of Australians and New Zealanders were hospitalised in Malta, which was known as "the nurse of the Mediterranean". Several who didn't survive are buried on the island.
