    Australian Imperial Force

    I've been looking up info on AIF regimental crests, but I havn't found any, did they not have them?
    (Unlike the territorial regiments, or post war Royal Regiments, that did)


    Also, did AIF 1941/1942 infantry divisions & brigades follow the British organizational pattern, or were there differences?
