Australian Military Units
A
wide variety of units of the navy, army and air force have served Australia
in times of conflict. Here, you will find profiles of some of these.
Each includes a short history of the unit, details of its casualties,
decorations, battle honours, commanding officers, and, in the case
of technical units, the specifications of the equipment it used. Within
each profile you are able to search the Memorial’s collections
for items relating to the unit: photographs, works of art, film and
sound recordings, personal records, and relics.
