    How did Indigenous Australians help in the Defence of Australia in World War 2? WHAT DOES THIS TELL US ABOUT CITIZENSHIP? We do not know much about Indigenous service in the Australian armed forces. However, we are now starting to discover more as interest in Australia’s Indigenous history grows. In this unit we have gathered together information and evidence about Indigenous Australians’ service in World War 2, and in particular their involvement in the northern Defence of Australia. By looking at this information and evidence you will be able to explore the two great themes we have been presenting in the Defence 2020 program this year: Citizenship, and Plaque at Rocky Creek, Role Models.

The first of these major reviews, the Morshead Review was initiated in 1957. This review coincided with the growing realisation that Australia had to become more self reliant in defence matters. The experience of World War Two had shown that total reliance on "great and powerful friends" was a dangerous practice and self reliance dictated that Australia's military forces would have to act together in a joint environment. Australia's system of military command had to be capable of producing effective policies and planning guidance to met the new demands of independent joint operations. Successive reviews aimed at moving the Australian Defence Forces toward a more joint organisation have resulted in major changes to the higher defence machinery.

  • The Self-Reliant Defence of Australia: the History of an Idea
    Chapter 1 The Self-Reliant Defence of Australia: The History of an Idea Paul Dibb For much of Australia's history, there has been a deeply-held view that Australia was a vulnerable country incapable of defending itself. This sense of vulnerability reflected a keen awareness that Australia was a large, sparsely populated continent rich in agricultural land and resources. The colony was located on the other side of the world from its British origins and fears of a foreign invasion surfaced at various times during the nineteenth century.1 As David Horner points out, from the earliest days the Australian colonists were concerned for their security and it was partly the desire for collective defence that drove the early colonial governments towards Federation in 1901. Tension, however, soon arose between two strands in Australian defence policy, later described in a shorthand way as `fortress Australia' versus `forward defence' (though in the early twentieth century it was the `Australianists' versus the `imperialists').2 But when Japan threatened Australia with invasion in the Second World War, the fears that Australia could not defend itself without help from a large ally were starkly confirmed. After the war, this perspective led to the policy of `forward defence' that saw Australian expeditionary forces fighting communism in Korea and Vietnam alongside the United States, as well as in Malaya with the British and in Borneo during the Confrontation. It was only during the 1970s, following America's defeat in Vietnam, that the need for the self-reliant `defence of Australia' emerged as a serious proposition.

  • Australian Defence Force (ADF) Case Study
    Australian Defence Force (ADF) Case Study A common platform for the Australian Defence Force (ADF) to manage its vehicles, aircraft, people and assets. The Australian Defence Force is the military organisation responsible for the defence of Australia and its national interests. It consists of the Royal Australian Navy, Australian Army, Royal Australian Air Force and several “tri-service” units. The Challenge The ADF required a common operating picture across a range of objects including vehicles, aircraft, people and assets, role dependant equipment facilitating differentiated levels of communication, tracking and lone worker support for ADF staff, contractors and civilians. They needed a solution that would meet data access and privacy requirements, configurable user role definitions defining platform functionality accessible, assets visible and configurable. To provide visibility and control of commercial ventures, the incorporation of commercial fleets as a subset of the ADF Compliance Management Team (CMT) fleet hierarchy. The Solution The Global Alerting Platform (GAP) provides the common operating picture (single pane of glass for all assets) in support of a range of security and operations, that the CMT required. GAP has been deployed for ADF staff, contractors and civilians, selecting in each case equipment fit for purpose, providing situational awareness (peer to peer). The Results The CMT has deployed a range of lone worker devices from the GAP portfolio of supported devices; providing traceability, two-way communications (including voice), duress and man-down support for ADF staff, contractors and civilians operating outside of cellular coverage in the Woomera protected area. CMT has exploited the highly configurable role-based capability of the GAP platform to deliver the tightly controlled, hierarchical security structure required to support operations.
