	Australian Army - free-definition
		Australian soldiers have been involved in a number of minor and major conflicts throughout its history, but only in World War II did Australian territory come under direct attack.
		The first Australian division to see action on the Western Front was the 5th Division which was thrown unprepared into the futile Battle of Fromelles, a "diversion" to the Battle of the Somme that cost the division 5,500 casualties for no gain.
		Australian units were also responsible for the last phase of amphibious assaults during the Pacific War: the attacks on Japanese-occupied Borneo, including Tarakan, Brunei, British Borneo, Balikpapan and other targets in Sarawak.

	THE ANATOMY OF A RAID. Australia at Celtic Wood 9 Oct. 1917 - SPAGNOLY, TONY (SMITH, TED ED.)
		In July 1917, the small Belgian village of Passchendaele, became the focus for one of the most grueling, bloody, and bizarre battles of World War** I. When it was over, in early November, close to 500,000 had become casualties, with either army having achieved a decisive strategic result.
		From the Prologue: ~On the 8th October 1917 the staff of the 3rd Australian Brigade, in their shelters around Anzac Ridge near Polygon Wood, must have been surprised to receive orders to mount what would be a second raid within two days on an enemy position named Celtic Wood.
