The concept of 'mateship' - that we do not desert our friends or pals during the darkest moments i think is one of the primary themes to live on from the ANZAC legends.
An example of this is that the Prime Minister John Howard wrote in 1999 the Preamble to the Australian Constitution "We value excellence as well as fairness, independence as dearly as mateship".
One of the values that our society holds dear is that of loyalty, fairness. The values that our society holds in high esteem are
those that the diggers from the ANZAC legends - or the spirit of those soldiers who not only fought at Gallipoli, the battlefields and trenches in France and the Middle East, as well as during World War 2, Korea, the Malay emergency, Vietnam.
No matter what - you never let down your mates.
