Les Knox shares stories of his grandfather John Knox, who served in World War 2.
He is very proud of his grandfather’s service, but only discovered it about 10-15 years ago and Les and his family are continuing to research John Knox’s service.
Les goes on to speak about his cousin Bluey Lang, who also served and was a passionate advocate for wider recognition of Aboriginal service.
Listen to Les’ interview at the Narrabri Yarn Up.
