Australian Army 

The Australian Army in World War II earned a reputation as a tough, adaptable, and highly professional fighting force, serving in both the North African Desert and the jungles of the Pacific. Australian troops distinguished themselves in battles such as Tobruk, El Alamein, Kokoda, and New Guinea, where their resilience, aggressive patrolling, and ability to operate in harsh conditions made them some of the most respected Allied soldiers of the war.
