I have  never seen ANZAC used over here except of course for ANZAC  Day
or in  its historical sense. I would have thought that the Australian 
Military  not
to say the New Zealand would be offended by its use in any other way.  
(Speaking as a member of a military family)

Wouldn't calling the Australian or New Zealand modern  military persons 
ANZACs be something like calling someone in the US  Air Force a member of the US 
Army Air Corps?
