Extractions: For the first fifty years, "the Army" meant the force raised under the terms of the Defence Act for the defence of mainland Australia, the Australian Military Forces. This force, which comprised a small full time or permanent component and large numbers of part time militia, could not be sent overseas to fight. Whenever Australian policy needed a force for service outside Australia, a separate volunteer force, the Australian Imperial Force (AIF) had to be raised. This volunteer force fought in both World Wars and established the ANZAC tradition of courage, resourcefulness and fighting efficiency. After World Ward II, a full time standing Army was established. The restriction on overseas deployment of this permanent force was abandoned and the Australian Army, which comprised both full and part time soldiers, could be sent wherever the government required. This new force was quickly tested in the battles of the Korean War and Vietnam, where it acquitted itself to the high standard of its AIF predecessor.
Extractions: During World War II, Number 6 Aircraft Depot was established at Oakey as a key RAAF station in the South West Pacific area. Aircraft such as Beaufort, Boomerang, Kittyhawk, Lancaster, Mustang, Norseman, Spitfire and Wirraway were serviced, repaired and test flown here until February 1946. The field now houses Blackhawk, Iroquois and Kiowa helicopters and Nomad aeroplanes among others. Email Direct: maaf@icr.com.au

Extractions: Instituted in 1890, the Liyakat Medal became the basic military decoration of the Ottoman Empire (Turkey) until the end of the First World War. It was issued in gold or silver. Awards made during this war only bore a ribbon clasp of crossed sabers with the year 1333 (1915) in the same metal as the medal. Medal for the China War (Boxer Rebellion) There is a difference between "bars" and "clasps" although sometimes the two get mixed up. Supporting "bars" are another thing altogether. A bar represents the award of another medal of the same type. As wearing 2 or more identical medals would look silly a bar is worn on the riband of the medal to indicate the second award.

Gallery Function: Armed services organisation The Australian Army Nursing Service, which was actually a reserve, was established on 1 July 1903. The Service was staffed by volunteer civilian nurses who would be available for duty during times of national emergency. Members of the Service served in both the World Wars, staffing medical facilities in Australia and overseas. In 1949 the Service became part of the Australian Regular Army and is now known as the Royal Australian Army Nursing Corps (RAANC). Details Prior to Australia's Federation in 1901, each colony controlled its own defence force, of which the nursing services formed a part. In July 1903 the nursing services of each colony joined together to form the Australian Army Nursing Service. The Service which was part of the Australian Army Medical Corps was made up of volunteer trained nurses who were willing to serve in times of a national emergency. At the outbreak of World War I staff were recruited from both the nursing service and the civilian workforce. They served at field and base hospitals in Australia as well as in Egypt, England, France, Belgium, Greece, Salonika, Palestine, Palestine, Mesopotamia and India. After the war the Australian Army Nursing Service returned to a reserve status.

Gallery Function: Armed services organisation The Australian Army Medical Women's Service (AAMWS) was established in December 1942. At that stage it was decided to distinguish between Voluntary Aid Detachments, whose governing body was the Joint State Council in each State and the Joint Central Council (the Commonwealth authority), and Voluntary Aids who were serving at Military Hospitals on a full-time basis under Army control. [1] Author Patsy Adam-Smith herself a member of the Voluntary Aid Detachment (VAD) who joined the AAMWS, states in Australian Women at War From that date [December 1942], the Service's officers and soldiers were subject to military law and to the provisions of the Defence Act, the Army Act and the Rules of Procedure 'The majority of the original recruits for the AAMWS were drawn from the ranks of the Voluntary Aid Detachments, and the experience they already had was of great benefit in their work in military hospitals, both home and overseas.' In July 1949 the Australian Army Medical Women's Service became part of the Regular Army. Two years later The Service was disbanded and its duties were incorporated into the Royal Australian Army Nursing Corps.
