The Despatcher Sulva Bay

My painting was inspired by the bravery of the Anzac Despatchers who galloped across open country under enemy fire to deliver and send mail to families and friends back home.
This was a great morale booster to troops and loved ones. These acts of bravery have contributed to the Legend of our Anzacs and the high esteem in which they are held world wide.
