Description
The First Australian Imperial Force (1st AIF) was the main expeditionary force of the Australian Army during World War I. It was formed on 15 August 1914, following Britain's declaration of war on Germany, initially with a strength of one infantry division and one light horse brigade.
The Kokoda Track campaign or Kokoda Trail campaign was part of the Pacific War of World War II. The campaign consisted of a series of battles fought between July and November 1942 between Japanese and Allied—primarily Australian—forces in what was then the Australian territory of Papua.
Keeping track of WW1 Units was easy. In most cases they were assigned to a Brigade which was assigned to a Division and they stayed there for the duration. Not so in WW2. We virtually had two wars (Nth Africa and the Pacific) and we had two armies, the AIF and the CMF. Some of the CMF Units became AIF Units. All in all it made for a confusing mix.http://www.diggerhistory.info/pages-conflicts-periods/ww2/pages-2aif-cmf/order_of_battle.htm
