The following information has been compiled from a listing of World War II service records, covering all three branches of the services - Army, Navy and Air Force, which are held by the National Archives of Australia. It has been complemented by data available on a new website, the World War II Nominal Roll, from the Australian Department of Veterans Affairs, which appeared on the internet in November 2002. The DVA's data has, however, also been extracted from the newly released World War II files at the NAA.
Further information on a serviceman or woman's file can be obtained through the database Brew Files held by the National Archives of Australia or directly through the website of the National Archives or World War II Nominal Roll. The National Archives website is located at http://www.naa.gov.au, their e-mail address is archives@naa.gov.au and their postal address is PO Box 7425, Canberra Mail Centre, ACT, Australia, 2600. Their telephone number is +41-2-6212-3600, and their fax number: +41-2-6212-3699.
Over 993,000 Australians served in the armed forces during World War II. Of those on active service, 27,073 were killed in action or died, 23,477 were wounded, and 30,560 were taken prisoner of war, of which a further 8,296 died in captivity.
Information is also available on this site for Brews amongst
Australian World War I Army personnel
Australian Citizens Military Forces personnel, 1929-1940
Royal Australian Navy personnel, 1914-1960
