He is indeed alive today, a year on from this clip. He’s had a tough year. But still goi going. He’s my great uncle/grand uncle. On Good Friday many of his more immediate family made the trek to Perth for a group photo or two. I know he would be thrilled and humbled by all the comments here. While not a direct quote, his general attitude is to not just wake each day and be alive but to actively live each day. ❤

@@ozz3790In this clip Arthur Leggett is saying the ode in the stadium which was named after a Gallipoli veteran. Arthur was not at Gallipoli. I can see how you thought there was a connection though.

It’s incredible to think when he says “They shall not grow old”, he’s talking about people he knew, people he saw dying. Thank you for your service Mr Leggett
