The Australian Army and its forerunners have won many battle and theatre honours since its formation.
 The first honour given to an Australian unit came prior to Federation and was awarded to forces from the colony of New South Wales, which contributed a small contingent consisting of an infantry battalion, with artillery and support units to take part in the short-lived British campaign against the Dervish revolt in the eastern Sudan in 1885 following the death of General Charles Gordon at Khartoum.
 The next conflict that saw Australian units receive battle or theatre honours was the Second Boer War.
 Between 1899 and 1901, forces from the six Australian colonies fought alongside each other before being replaced in 1901 by forces of the newly established Australian Army following Federation.
 A total of five theatre honours were awarded for service in South Africa, being bestowed upon successor units in the form of honorary banners and distinctions presented in 1904, 1908 and 1911.
 Since then, the Australian Army has received honours for fighting during the First World War, the Second World War, the Korean War and the Vietnam War, with the Royal Australian Regiment last being awarded a battle honour in 1994 for the First Battle of Maryang San in Korea.
 In 2013 units of Special Operations Command were awarded the battle honour Eastern Shah Wali Kot for their actions in Afghanistan in May and June 2010.
 A total of 246 honours have been awarded.
Holsworthy Barracks (ICAO: YSHW) is an Australian Army military barracks, located in Holsworthy approximately 25 km from the central business district, in south-western Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.
 The barracks is part of the Holsworthy military reserve, which is 22000 ha training area and artillery range for the Australian Army, established in the 1880s and been in active use since World War I.
 Following World War II it became a major base for the permanent component of the Australian Army in New South Wales.
 Activities carried out on the base include the use of firing ranges, chemical weapons testing, fire training, vehicle maintenance, and bulk chemical storage and distribution from numerous above ground and underground storage tanks.
Lone Pine Barracks is an Australian Army base located in New South Wales, 8 km south of Singleton.

The Jungle division was a military organisation adopted in early 1943 by the Australian Army during the Second World War.
 This organisation was a much lighter version of the standard British-pattern infantry division used during previous campaigns in the deserts of the Mediterranean and Middle East Theatre fighting the Germans and Italians in 1940 and 1941 and was optimised to meet the needs of jungle warfare against the Japanese in the South West Pacific Area.
 Jungle divisions were smaller and had fewer heavy weapons, vehicles and support units than the British-pattern division previously used and had an establishment of just 13,118 men, approximately 4,000 fewer than a standard division.
 The bulk of the reduction occurred among the administrative, transport and artillery units.
 The conditions that prevailed in the South West Pacific Area led the Australian Army to initially convert five infantry divisions to Jungle divisions, although this was later increased to six.
 Divisions converted to the jungle organisation included three Militia divisions: the 3rd, 5th and 11th and the three Australian Imperial Force (AIF) divisions: the 6th, 7th, 9th.
 Despite some modifications, this re-organisation proved successful during later Australian operations in New Guinea, New Britain, Bougainville, Aitape-Wewak and Borneo in 1944–45.
The Royal Australian Infantry Corps (RA Inf) is the parent corps for all infantry regiments of the Australian Army.
 It was established on 14 December 1948, with its Royal Corps status being conferred by His Majesty King George VI.

 Major components of the RA Inf include the various battalions of the Royal Australian Regiment and the six state-based Reserve infantry regiments, such as the Royal New South Wales Regiment.
 The various Regional Force Surveillance and Special Forces units of the Army are also part of the corps.

The Newcastle Covering Force was an Australian militia force responsible for protecting strategically important Newcastle region and its approaches during World War II.
 Established on 8 April 1941, the formation's composition changed over the course of its existence, starting from a single infantry battalion support by a machine-gun unit and swelling to roughly brigade-size, with a brigade headquarters and three battalions – two infantry and one garrison – supported initially by a machine gun battalion that was later converted to a motor regiment.
 The unit was responsible for defending the important port and air bases in and around the town, part of Fortress Newcastle, against a feared Japanese invasion.
 Newcastle Covering Force was converted on 15 April 1942 to the 10th Division, a regular Australian Army unit, following a complete re-organisation of the higher command structures of the Australian Army.
