Personal service records

These files are held by the Department of Defence, Service and Personnel Records.

Those who died while serving

The Roll of Honour records the names of servicemen and servicewomen who died during or as a result of service with Australian military forces. The Roll of Honour introduction provides detailed information about Roll of Honour eligibility.

Where they served

As it is less than 20 years since official records for this conflict were created, files are not yet available for public access (for more information see the Archives Act 1983).
