I have seen his service records which indicated that his disability was being assessed and reviewed well after WW I. He returned to his hometown Kyogle in NSW, married and had three children. In WW II he was in the RAAF reserve, I think, as an AA observer. Despite his burns he lived an active life and was a local pillar of the community. He was a member of a local band into his 60s at least, and played the tuba. He also played grade cricket till about the same age and a Kyogle cricket ground was named after him.
