Hundreds of thousands of New Zealanders marked Anzac Day over the weekend remembering those who have put their lives on the line
In Paekākāriki and around the Kapiti Coast near Wellington, Anzac Day is also a chance to remember the tens of thousands of United States Marines who were based in the region during World War two.
For the past three years a highlight of those commemorations has been performances by the Marine Corps Forces Pacific Band who are based at Kaneohe Bay in Hawaii
The 17-strong group is led by Chief Warrant Officer Andres Navarro, who joins Emile Donovan.
