[2] The symbol of Legacy is a torch that signifies the undying flame of service and sacrifice of those who gave their lives for their country.

Volunteer members are called "Legatees" because they accept the "legacy of care" for their comrades' families; this title has continued to the present day.

A road tunnel under construction in Brisbane is named Legacy Way in honour of the men and women serving in the Australian Defence Force.

[4] Funds are raised by a variety of methods, the most notable being the sale of special badges and other goods during "Legacy Week".

This is usually during the first week of September when mainly school children volunteer their time to accomplish these sales, especially in Australia's central business districts.
