"301 Sig Sqn was raised in 1960, in 1965 it was redesignated as 126 Signal Squadron (Special Forces) and the following year saw the re-location to the Albert Park depot in Melbourne. Over the next two decades, more re-locations took place, in 1972 from Albert Park to temporary accommodation at Watsonia Barracks, then in 1984 to a new, dedicated complex at Simpson Barracks (formerly Watsonia Barracks). In 1981 after relinquishing its independent role and becoming a member of the newly formed 1st Commando Regiment, 126 Sig Sqn had to realign its operation to accommodate the Regiments need for infantry orientated signallers. In 1999, 301 Sig Sqn (now ARES) was re-raised to support the 1st Commando Regiment and 126 Sig Sqn (now ARA) became part of 4 RAR (Cdo) . The wheel had come full circle." This website is a basic resource for information about 126 Signal Squadron. |
