‘This particular photograph is truly one of the most incredible examples of mateship I have ever seen. The photograph was taken at the Anzac Day March in London in 1919. An Australian soldier, who lost both his legs, being carried into Australia House by a comrade to obtain a position of vantage to view the Anzac Day March through the streets. In our political correct world, some believe the term ‘mateship’ should be changed to ‘friendship’. Every Australian should see this photograph and understand that to those Australians who have served their country in war, mateship meant everything. Lest We Forget. Photograph came from the Australian War Memorial. Image file number AWM H18643.’
