Old Guard (Australia) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Old Guard (Australia)
The Old Guard was an Australian anti-communist organisation which was started in 1930〔 although at least one historian has claimed it existed as early as 1917.〔 Its exact origins are disputed. It has been described as a paramilitary, quasi-official, vigilante, counterrevolutionary, anti-communist organisation. The Old Guard had a similar purpose and was composed simarly to the National Guard of the United States.〔 It had legal sanction under the Peace Officers Act 1925.〔 The group was primarily concerned with the social conditions arising from the Great Depression and the New South Wales government led by Jack Lang.〔Keith Amos. (Campbell, Eric (1893–1970) ). Australian Dictionary of Biography. National Centre of Biography, Australian National University. Retrieved 10 August 2013.〕 Neither the Old Guard or the New Guard supported the Australia First Movement. In response to rumours of fire-starting by agitators the Old Guard was a driving force behind the development of country bush fire brigades in New South Wales. As the threat of communism waned the Old Guard had little to do. It was dissolved sometime in the 1950s.〔 ==Secrecy== The group was sworn to absolute secrecy regarding membership, its division into cells so that its leaders were obscured and the destruction of its own records. Media reports on the group in the 1930s were scarce.
