World War One postcard showing Australian Kangaroo in France fighting the Germans represented as a Dachshund dog with Iron Cross medal flying , winklepicker helmet knocked off . In Australia , a Dingo is rejoicing, saying with the Kangaroo away , he is the boss, so long live the Dachshund! Clearly, this New Zealand postcard , in a Queensland collection , was issued during the divisive Australian government's compulsory conscription attempt by Prime Minister Billy Hughes , rejected in two referenda held in 1916 and 1917.
