The FIRST to defeat the Imperial Japanese Army. How many people actually know this? We are so self deprecating we dont celebrate the fact that our victory along with the preceeding Battle of Midway was the begining of the end of the Japanese conquest. My Pa was one of them and while on the whole I am more interested in the Whermact I will always be Australian first. We beat them first Not the US not Britain but little Australia!
my dad was 27th battallion AIF. He stood against 100000 elite Japanese soldiers and saw another day. It is not the country the soldier came from but the man within. All praise to those that fought in every army. Aussie, American, Japanese or Wermacht. Soldiers die for their country, countries make the rules!
PresidentZod: Perhaps this is the little-known story of the Queen's Own Sausage-Sucking Rifles, a guards unit raised in the teeming population centers of the German-settled southern Northern Territory? I mean really, you watch the historical documents on the telly and at the cinema yes? Do not these documents -- of which you no doubt also quibble -- reveal that alien creatures from the furthest reaches of the cosmos speak English? Be a bit more mindful of your cultural insensitivity next time.

It's weird seeing Aussie soldiers speaking in German.
Normally if someone walked into an Australian camp during World War II and started speaking in German they probably would have been shot on sight.
At the very least they would have got some funny looks.
