The garden commemorates those who served in the Australian Imperial Force (A.I.F.)
The Australian Imperial Force (AIF) was a expeditionary force created on 15 August 1914 for service overseas during the Great War. All members had volunteered to serve beyond the limits of the Commonwealth. The name was chosen by its first commander, Brigadier General W. T. Bridges, as representative of its dual Australian and Imperial mission. Today it is generally known as the First AIF, since a Second AIF was created for service in the Second World War.
