Tributes are flowing for Bill Grayden, a decorated World War II veteran and Western Australia’s longest-serving MP, following his death at the age of 105.

Press PLAY to hear Stephen Barton’s tribute to Bill Grayden

RSL WA chief executive Stephen Barton told 6PR Breakfast hosts Millsy and Karl that Grayden signed up for the war underage, following the example of his father who had served at Gallipoli in World War I.

“He was so inspired by his father’s example he tried to enlist in ’39 but he was too young. He changed his first name, lied about his age and got in because he saw it as his duty to serve,” he said.
