SEARCH FOR TRUTH
“ I have often been asked what is the greatest impression gained of our New Zealand soldiers overseas,” said Colonel K. W. R. Glasgow, headmaster of Scots College, speaking at the college’s prize-giving ceremony. “ The first thing the New Zealand soldier seems to desire is the truth, and he does not mind whether it is an unpleasant truth. We have always heard of the initiative of our soldier? —and this is true —and their search for truth. It did not matter in the dark days of the war how black a picture we painted, the men’s morale remained high so long as they knew the truth. They were treated, like men, and they responded well.”
