Tonight this lecture is to be based on the quality and determination of Freemasons in the face of adversity and in particular the Brothers who were part of the legend of the Anzacs and to try to relate it to modern day Masons.
When deciding on the subject, my thought was to expand on the research I had begun while preparing a speech for Anzac Day earlier this year.
I had decided for that speech, I wanted something different from the usual military based information. Anzac Day has been celebrated for 89 years in every City and Town in Australia and New Zealand and indeed many cites throughout the World.
Many speeches have been made and most of the material, even that used in Masonic Circles, has had the same basic foundation.
