Alex Lloyd interviews World War II veterans Frederick and Marjorie Logan.

Life on the Line tracks down Australian military veterans and records their stories. Frederick and Marjorie Logan are both veterans of World War II. Fred served in an artillery regiment and fought against the Japanese in the Battle of Slater’s Knoll, in Bougainville, 1945. After the war, he served in the NSW Police Force for over 3 decades. His wife, Marjorie, served in the Australian Women’s Army Service, driving ambulances for soldiers and Australian Prisoners of War returning from overseas. Today, Fred is 100 years old and Marjorie is 98. Alex Lloyd spoke with them both, on the date of their 75th wedding anniversary, in their nursing home in Queensland.
