Last Man Standing Australian Boer War Anzac Light Horse Veteran this man knew the "Breaker" Morant. The Breaker was an excellent (stockman) horseman. A real soldier of the Queen, fighting in the Boer war , with the Australian light horse in Palestine WW1, and attempting to join the Australian army for WW2. If anyone would like a translation of anything "pop" says during the interview, just ask I would be happy to illucidate.
