..................................................................................................... 52 Glossary .................................................................................................................... 55 Army’s Values Army’s cultural and ethical foundation is its values and the bonds of trust and respect between each and every person who joins in service to our Nation. Values form the bedrock of everything we do: Courage, moral and physical, to act in the best interests of the Nation and the Army; including the moral strength and professionalism to balance the will to win with compassion, and mateship with duty. Initiative to explore opportunities and embrace innovation to improve Army and our service to our Nation. Respect for ourselves, our colleagues, our community and our history of service to the Nation; acknowledging that each member of Army has earned the right to wear the Rising Sun Badge and the responsibility to uphold the values and traditions it symbolises. Teamwork to support each other, our Australian community, our allies and our regional security partners in striving to achieve our mission; in a world connected by digital communication, such national and international ‘communities’ exist in both physical and online domains. Lieutenant General David Morrison, AO Chief of Army The Australian Army Formed on 1 March 1901, the Australian Army is one of the nation’s oldest institutions. It continues to hold a special place in the hearts of Australians through sacrifice and long service to the nation. The Australian Army is the foundation of the nation’s Land Power and has the mission: To Win the Land Battle. As part of an Australian Defence Force (Joint force), it promotes and protects Australia’s interests, deters threats to Australia’s sovereignty and, if necessary, defeats those threats. To achieve this, the Army must be able to generate credible and sustainable land forces. Australia’s limited size will always mean its Army is a small force: capable of Brigade and lower manoeuvre and be a meaningful contributor to coalitions of different national forces. It is through quality people, intellectual investment and technological development that the Army achieves credible forces that provide relevant options to Government. Underpinning Army’s ability to meet government direction is an understanding of the Strategic Utility of Land Power, Army’s Philosophy, the Strategic Tasks, Army’s Capability and Structure. Land Power Land Power is the ability to project force in and from land in peace, crisis and war to advance strategic and operational outcomes. Only land power can provide persistent influence on land: that is, a continuous physical presence which shapes intentions, denies

  • Chapter 3: Australian Force Structure, Interoperability and Intelligence
    3 Australian force structure, interoperability and intelligence Introduction 3.1 The Australian Defence Force (ADF) remains primarily structured for operations in defence of Australia1, yet it is increasingly involved in coalition operations with US forces, supporting Australia’s wider interests and objectives beyond our immediate neighbourhood. An ongoing challenge for the ADF is to determine the most effective way it can contribute both to potential operations in Defence of Australia, and the increasingly more demanding operations beyond our immediate neighbourhood. 3.2 The moderate levels of conventional threat in Australia’s immediate region, linked with the low likelihood of a conventional attack on Australia, compared to the high threats faced by the ADF when deployed to locations like Iraq and Afghanistan raises questions about the suitability of Australia’s force structure. Evidence to the inquiry is divided over whether adjustments to force structure, as a result of coalition operations a long way from Australia, are justified. 3.3 A number of force structure determinants are emerging from Australia’s recent involvement in coalition operations. The key determinant for conducting coalition operations remains, however, the ability to be interoperable with our allies in a range of key areas. The importance of interoperability to ADF operations will be examined and the key issues raised in evidence will be discussed. 1 Australian Government, Defence 2000 – Our Future Defence Force, p. XI. 24 AUSTRALIA’S DEFENCE RELATIONS WITH THE US 3.4 The final section of the chapter examines the significance of intelligence sharing between Australia and the US. The discussion will explore the key benefits and disadvantages of our intelligence sharing arrangements.

  • The World War I Correspondence of William Montgomery
    19 BRONWYN HUGHES ‘Y’rs affectionately, Mont’: the World War I correspondence of William Montgomery William ‘Mont’ Montgomery was a 24-year-old art student at the National Gallery School when, concerned at the dire war news from France, he enlisted on 29 January 1915.1 When the new Victorian 6th Brigade was raised at Broadmeadows in late March, No. 929, Private William Montgomery was assigned to D Company, 21 Battalion.2 Over the next four years Mont fought in many major battles – Gallipoli, Pozières, Ypres and Mont St Quentin among them – learning the art of soldiering and attaining the rank of sergeant. Tragically, on 5 October 1918 and with the Allied victory so close, Mont died of wounds in the battle for Montbrehain village on the Hindenburg Line.3 It was the last day of the last battle fought by Australians on the Western Front. Y’rs affectionately, Mont Soon after entering Broadmeadows Army Camp, Mont wrote the first of hundreds of letters home, always signing off his last page – ‘Yrs affectionately Mont’. Mont wrote as if he was painting with oils or watercolour, using colourful words to capture his firsthand experience of war, from broad views of daily life in the trenches to terrifying, exhilarating, wounding battles, but without losing his humanity or wry sense of humour. Wary of the censor’s blue pencil, Mont sometimes turned his keen eye towards the sustaining beauty of landscape, the local people, architecture, customs and food, which were all so different from the sheltered Australian life he knew as a child and youth.

  • Major General James Harold CANNAN CB, CMG, DSO, VD
    Major General James Harold CANNAN CB, CMG, DSO, VD [1882 – 1976] Major General Cannan is distinguished by his service in the Militia, as a senior officer in World War 1 and as the Australian Army’s Quartermaster General in World War 2. Major General James Harold Cannan, CB, CMG, DSO, VD (29 August 1882 – 23 May 1976) was a Queenslander by birth and a long-term member of the United Service Club. He rose to brigadier general in the Great War and served as the Australian Army’s Quartermaster General during the Second World War after which it was said that his contribution to the defence of Australia was immense; his responsibility for supply, transport and works, a giant-sized burden; his acknowledgement—nil. We thank the History Interest Group and other volunteers who have researched and prepared these Notes. The series will be progressively expanded and developed. They are intended as casual reading for the benefit of Members, who are encouraged to advise of any inaccuracies in the material.

File: HIG/Biographies/Cannan Page 1 Cannan was appointed Commanding Officer of the 15th Battalion in 1914 and landed with it at ANZAC Cove on the evening of 25 April 1915. The 15th Infantry Battalion later defended Quinn's Post, one of the most exposed parts of the Anzac perimeter, with Cannan as post commander. On the Western Front, Cannan was CO of 15th Battalion at the Battle of Pozières and Battle of Mouquet Farm. He later commanded 11th Brigade at the Battle of Messines and the Battle of Broodseinde in 1917, and the Battle of Hamel and during the Hundred Days Offensive in 1918.

  • Lands of the Rising Sun 23Rd International Congress of Vexillology Yokohama, Japan – 12–17 July 2009 Ralph G.C
    Lands of the Rising Sun 23rd International Congress of Vexillology Yokohama, Japan – 12–17 July 2009 Ralph G.C. Bartlett – President, Flags Australia Japan, also known as the Land of the Rising Sun, uses this symbol to great effect on both the national flag and naval ensign. However, it is not the only land to use the rising Sun as a significant symbol for either its flag or other insignia. The Sun is used on at least 12 current national flags, several territorial flags, national arms, and former national or colonial flags. Examples of these are1: Fig. 1 Antigua Fig. 2 Bahamas – Arms Fig. 3 British Columbia Fig. 4 Greenland Fig. 5 Argentina Fig. 6 Argentine Arms Fig. 7 Uruguay Fig. 8 Gilbert & Ellice Islands Fig. 9 Arms Fig. 10 Arms Fig. 11 Kiribati Fig. 12 China – Taiwan Fig. 13 French Polynesia Fig. 14 Polynesian Disc Fig. 15 Philippines Fig. 16 Labuan Federal Territory Fig. 17 Labuan Badge Fig. 18 Malaysia Fig. 19 Tibet Fig. 20 Nepal Fig. 21 Afghanistan Fig. 22 Kazakhstan Fig. 23 Uzbekistan Arms Fig. 24 Arms Fig. 25 Kyrgyzstan Fig. 26 Latvian Arms Fig. 27 Macedonia (1992-95) Fig. 28 Macedonia (since 1995) Fig. 29 Malawi Fig. 30 Namibia Fig. 31 Niger Fig. 32 Rwanda The meaning given to the Sun symbols does vary, but a general theme is: “Dawning of a new era and/or day”, religious status of the Sun, a symbol of life, enlightenment, or unity, and the geographic relationship of the Sun for a particular part of the world. A significant number of these flags and arms are for countries and territories in eastern Asia and the Pacific region.

  • The Thermopylae Line
    CHAPTER 6 THE THERMOPYLAE LINE ENERAL Wavell arrived in Athens on the 19th April and immediately e Gheld a conference at General Wilson's quarters . Although an effectiv decision to embark the British force from Greece had been made on a higher level in London, the commanders on the spot now once agai n deeply considered the pros and cons . The Greek Government was unstable and had suggested that the British force should depart in order to avoid further devastation of the country. It was unlikely that the Greek Army of Epirus could be extricated and some of its senior officers were urging sur- render. General Wilson considered that his force could hold the Ther- mopylae line indefinitely once the troops were in position.l "The arguments in favour of fighting it out, which [it] is always better to do if possible, " wrote Wilson later,2 "were : the tying up of enemy forces, army and air , which would result therefrom ; the strain the evacuation would place o n the Navy and Merchant Marine ; the effect on the morale of the troops and the loss of equipment which would be incurred . In favour of with- drawal the arguments were : the question as to whether our forces in Greece could be reinforced as this was essential ; the question of the maintenance of our forces, plus the feeding of the civil population ; the weakness of our air forces with few airfields and little prospect of receiving reinforcements ; the little hope of the Greek Army being able to recover its morale . The decision was made to withdraw from Greece ." The British leaders con- sidered that it was unlikely that they would be able to take out any equip- ment except that which the troops carried, and that they would be lucky "to get away with 30 per cent of the force" .

    “Expect to like this great as it may be exciting.” The War Diary of Sapper John Popham Fotheringham June 1917 - January 1919 June 2009 Sapper John Popham Fotheringham served as a driver with the 9th Canadian Artillery Brigade, Canadian Field Artillery in France and Belgium from June 1917 to January 1919. His diary, on its own, is not particularly detailed, except in certain small parts. However, when meshed with the War Diary of the Brigade, and the history of the Canadian Army in action in World War 1, it becomes evident that Sapper Fotheringham was involved in some of the biggest battles of the latter stages of the war - Amiens, Cambrai, Arras - only missing Passchendaele as he recovered from exposure to mustard gas in September 1917. John Popham Fotheringham was born in Ottawa on May 19th, 1897 to John Turnbull Fotheringham and Mary Popham Fotheringham. His sister, Laura, was born two years later. His uncle, George Beveridge Fotheringham (father of cousin Lieutenant John Beveridge Fotheringham) served with the Ottawa Field Battery during the Fenian Raid of 1866. J.P. Fotheringham studied Applied Science at McGill University in 1915 to 1916, serving in the cadet corps with CCTC McGill. On August 24th, 1916, at Ottawa, he enlisted in the Canadian Expeditionary Force as a Sapper (Private) with the Canadian Engineers, being posted to the 3rd Canadian Divisional Signal Company. Following training, he left Canada on January 16th, 1917 on the RMS Scandinavian, arriving in England on February 6th. He arrived in Le Havre, France, on May 24th, 1917. He marched from the Divisional Rest Camp and joined the 3rd Canadian Divisional Company on June 9th, 1917.
