About this listen

This is the story of William McKenzie, whose tireless work as a Salvation Army chaplain among the Anzacs in World War I earned him the nickname 'Fighting Mac'. Though he spoke out against booze, brothels, betting, and bad language—favourite vices of the troops—he was much loved and respected.

William McKenzie was once one of the most famous of the Anzacs, a legend for his work on Gallipoli and in France. McKenzie was a Salvation Army Chaplain, a species of non-combatant officer usually held in low esteem. He railed against booze, brothels, betting and bad language. Yet he was revered by the soldiers—and by many on the home front as well.
