Royal Australian Regiment UnitsPrint Page Print this page

The Regiment Unit plaques commemorate the units of the Royal Australia Regiment who have served since World War Two.

The origins of the Royal Australian Regiment (or RAR) lies in the decision made by the Australian Government to raise a force for occupation duties in Japan at the end of the Second World War. It was originally formed in 1948 as a three battalion regiment; however, since then its size has fluctuated as battalions have been raised, amalgamated or disbanded in accordance with the Australian government's strategic requirements.
