9th Australian Division

The 9th Australian Division was the fourth division raised for the Second Australian Imperial Force (AIF) and the only Second AIF division to have formed in the UK. It fought in front-line combat for longer, cumulatively, than any other Australian division, and served in both the Mediterranean and Pacific theatres.  The 9th's campaigns included the Siege of Tobruk, El Alamein, Milne Bay, Lae, the Huon Peninsula, Tarakan and Brunei Bay.  The division finally disbanded in May 1946.
