“I remember the first Anzac Day celebration I attended. I was a school kid way up in North Queensland. We used to wear funny straw boaters — cheese-cutters we called ’em —and I' can just recall having a bit of white silk pinned to my coat with the words “Anzac Day 1915” in gold lettering . . . It’s the one day in the year when every member of the Australian community in London turns up to pay his little tribute to a magnificent memory —a memory which you and the people back home are making a grander and a greater reality. From London we salute you, you who are the sons and worthy successors of the original Anzacs.” —H. H. Stewart, in the 8.8. C. programme “Australian Magazine.”
