Australians War Heroes.
Australian war heroes were mostly volunteered soldiers, the last of the wild colonial boys larrikins but true heroes, unfortunately today these greatest Australian war heroes ever never received a thank you from the Australian military after their war. In the history of all Australian wars the ww2 diggers were the only Australian military, ever involved in a war that actually saved Australia from invasion, but now the last true blue war heroes are politically incorrect as many now rolling in their graves. Today’s Australian soldiers make a career choice are highly paid, if have been involved in war today Australian war veterans get the VIP medical free cover for the rest of their life, if they can’t sleep receive fabulous pensions for the rest of their life, again funded by the true heroes today the taxpayer the salt of the earth. Some may say heroes the Australian government military, others will say Australian soldiers today only going to make the Taliban richer, as Muslim Afghan families now coming to live in first world countries overseas, because of the Australian Governments involvement in war that tall Afghanistan apart. These Muslims will send their earning now in US$ and Australian $ back to Muslim Mosque in Afghanistan and family members, that will be joining the new Muslim Taliban. US and Coalition countries such as Australian war forces, has cost a small fortune 20 years wages plus a lot more money training them, the cost in transporting arms, jeeps food and medical supplies etc, the last 20 years to Afghanistan, “fortune in Australian revenue”. It’s not only cost tax payers a fortune to pay for career choice soldiers that lose a war. Now western countries businesses will fund the Muslim Taliban because of this idiotic war intervention.
Australian Second World War involvement officially the Australian’s at war in 1939 on September the 3rd, as the federal government announced Australia’s involvement in World war II against the Germans and the Italians. WWII or WW2 and World War 2 also terms used to describe this war that went to about 2 September 1945. Not only most of western Europe but eastern Europe the Germans arena of war, Germans first invaded Europe Poland and as far north as Finland. Germans were in Africa from 10th of June 1940 Egyptian Morocco Libya and Algeria Tunisia . The Germans had some locations in the Mediterranean area & Middle East so WWII was definitely global war.
1941 on 8 December the Japanese invaded Thailand WWII as the Thai generals was cowards and do not defend their country against the invading Japanese. The japs then were able to move through Thailand with complete ease and invade their neighbours Malaysia and Burma then to Singapore so Australia was the target next in line. Thai generals quickly surrendered and sold out there allies and accepted Japanese terms for the transit of the Thai armies. Not long after the Thai generals on the 21 December Thai generals signed a broad military alliance with Japan. This is how Thai generals allowed POW x allies be treated even though they were trying to free Thailand from the Japanese. Forced to build the Burmese Thai death railroad well over 100,000 oriental and slaves +10s of thousands of Allied prisoners of war died, treated like mangy feral animals work to death in the country of Thailand during Second World War. Australian and Dutch British POWs at Tarsau in Thailand in 1943, man worked to death starve to death most survivors was suffering from beri beri.
Australians Second World War had to declared war on these traitorous Thai generals on 2 March 1942 because the Thai generals sold out their allies and went with the barbaric Emperor of Japan’s military side because they were coward. Thai generals were lucky they never received much punishment, after the war for being traitors to their allies. Thai signature on the contract was worthless their generals treated it like toilet paper cheap roll flushed away. Many people that have worked in Thailand say the mentality of their generals is still the same today, like a snake cobra with fork tongue. Quite a few Thai governments in recent years elected democratic had to escape the country because of military coups by the generals.
At the end of Australians Second World War Japanese received enlightenment and came to their cents and surrended. It was a very harsh punishment but the Buddhist believe in Karma atomic weapons for the first time was used on cities, Nagasaki in Japan and Heara Shima bombed to submission and forced to surrender. After all the Japanese atrocities the military inflicted on the Chinese, along with barbaric experiments on the Chinese. Japanese war crimes on allies and forced comfort women in Korea, barbaric acts on countries of Asia and Pacific Asia. The Japanese were lucky the Americans show compassion and rebuilt them and gave the Japanese people a bright future. Because the Allies were busy in Japan and then Europe as Nazi Germany had surrendered and large occupation Allied forces to be sent to these countries. The Thai generals were lucky wiggled off the hook simply because the allies was more interested in cleaning up the big fish Japan and Germany.
Australian Thai Peace Treaty was signed on 3 April 1946 in Bangkok. Thailand for the last 80 years has been nearly always under control of the military dictators generals, as they stage military coups and throw out all the democratically elected governments of Thailand ever since.
In 1950 Thais compensation payed Britain and Australia for wartime damage for ww2. The British and US made a big mistake by not bombing Thai military headquarters of the generals. The Thai generals lied were scheming conniving, it was not an occupied country at the time by the Japanese they joined them in World War II and got into bed together. The Thai barracks should had copped the same fate as Japan with atomic bombs used, then their allies today would know you could trust them.
Japanese entered the second World war in 1941 and Germany officially became allies of the Japanese. As the Japanese bombed the American State of Hawaii, destroying lots of US military shipping in Pearl Harbor. Japanese military then immediately attacked British interest in Asia and then quickly migrated the war effort and took over the South East Asian countries and most of the Pacific countries. The French and Dutch interest all fell to the much more superior Japanese. The English had their hands tied still in World war 2 global arena, as allies the French and most of western and eastern Europe had surrendered to the Germans.

The Japanese very quick on-slaught Hong Kong and Singapore french Indochina and Manchuria China Korea Thailand Indonesia and Malaysia Philippines there were all soon under Japanese military control. There was only one country left as the Japanese military needed the large continent in Pacific Asia Australia. So a large Japanese armada with aircraft carriers battleships destroyers and a navy convoy of troops, invasion force entered the Australian waters of the Great Barrier Reef south of the northern city of Cairns. The Japanese needed to cut Australia off from the Americans in WWII, this would had completed the Japanese military invasion plans. Lucky the Americans and Australians knew of the invasion plans and the Americans were able to help the Australian Navy by providing aircraft carriers and the largest ally navy present in the battle by far was the US. Payback day for the Americans after their defeat in Hawaii and Philippines and a sovereign America Island not far from Hawaii, was overwhelmed as the American military leader of the island had to surrender and handover the fort to the Japanese.
Unfortunately this naval battle was a draw the Japanese Navy had to turn back from the Coal sea battle. The Japanese decided to attack Australia over land as there military was controlling parts of Papua New Guinea, the nearest country to Australia. The war in Europe for Australian military had to stop and orders were given for soldiers to return to Australia. These Australian diggers had years of experience fighting the very hard Nazis soldiers in Europe, so when they were all sent to Papua New Guinea to stop the Japanese invasion of Australia, travelling overland from the north on the Kokoda trail down to the capital PNG of Papua New Guinea, just a hop step and a jump from Australia.

These very brave well trained Australian WWII soldiers known as diggers were excellent jungle fighters to, able to turn the Japanese onslaught back. Severe fighting that force the Japanese to retreat along the Kokoda track back to the other side of the island where the Japanese were eliminated as they fought to the death and would not surrender. This was the first complete defeat of a Japanese land assault in World war 2, even low the Russians had defeated a Japanese force leaving occupied China entering Russian Mongolia. The earlier Russian victory was well before the Japanese declare war on the US and their allies in World War 2.
With the defeat of the Japanese advance on Australia this was the start of the end for the Japanese in WWII. Where in the Battle of Midway U.S intelligence and with a second chance time now was on their side in WWII for the first time. US Navy and massive aircraft carriers had their first victory against the Japanese Navy and they’re massive aircraft carriers and AirPower in the Second world war.

Australians Second World War.
Australians World War II or the Second World War, you can abbreviate as WWII or WW2 official starting date was the 1st of September 1939 in Europe against the Germans. As soon as the Americans were attacked on December 7th 1941 when Japan staged a surprise attack on US State of Hawaii, at Pearl Harbor that decimated the US Pacific Fleet. Australia Government understood they had to support US as allies Britain and Russia were still finding it difficult to defeat the Nazi Germans. World war II in1942 the Australians was getting heavily involved in the Pacific war supporting America, and less involvement fighting Nazis. The Australian military learnt that the Japanese did not respect prisoners as much as the Germans, as many Australian prisoners never return back from the Pacific World War II conflict.
WWII Australia famous date 2 September as Australian and their allies warships with planes from Britain and United States and others reached Tokyo. Japanese delegation was welcome aboard the US Navy ship in Tokyo harbour, on board the Supreme Commander of the allied Douglas MacArthur. Japanese high-ranking military official then signed the surrender on MacArthur military ship, Admiral Nimitz signed for the US and accepted Japan’s surrender. Representatives from United Kingdom the Soviet Union signature, Thomas Blamey signed for Australia. Canada and China signature New Zealand and a couple European countries added their signature.
Australians Second World War unfortunately might not be the last as MacArthur prayer was ridiculous, that peace be restored to the world as virtually straight after World War II Russia and America fought over the spoils of war, hence Cold War 1. For 3/4 of a century after we’ve had more wars and longer wars then any world war. Cold War 1 lasted for much of the twentieth century and now we have cold war II. Australia had to become politically sensitive to the region, unfortunately they went overboard now a completely politically correct Country. Hopefully Australia realises they have to share the region but not only with American superpower but with growing powers in the region such as Japan China Indonesia. First of June 2021 the longest war Australia has been involved in has come to an end they lost to the third world Taliban. The Taliban have taken over most of the Afghanistan State Australia was assigned to. Now cold War II America and not only with Russia but their friends China threatening each other. The Allies have used atomic weapons before so all we need is one mad woman or man ww3 the end.
