Australians in France at dawn on the Western Front
A lecture imagines Australians in France during dawn near No Man's Land. A calm breakfast scene unfolds with Australians clean and hungry, while German troops are silent but visible through battle wear. The piece notes many Australian horses in France, taller by winter, and praises their endurance and speed as the front remains quiet at that moment.
