| Summary: |
"After World War Two Australian troops went to Japan to do an important job. They had been courageous in battle and were dignified in victory. With the British Commonwealth Occupation Force they showed what responsible military behaviour meant and made a huge contribution to returning a war ravaged world to normalcy. The real and enduring legacy of the soldiers of the BCOF was the springboard they made to increasing political, economic and social maturity which Australia continues to enjoy. The Australian Commonwealth Military Force men and women of the BCOF are recognised in this work."--Back cover. |
