Description: Set of 4 Mint Unhinged Stamps The Australian Defence Force A Centenary of Service Issue date: 21 October 2014 This year we commemorate the centenary of the beginning of WWI. This stamp issue remembers the contribution made by our defence services over the last century. Australia has maintained military forces since shortly after Federation, when the Australian Army and Commonwealth Naval Force were established by the amalgamation of the forces maintained by the states. The Australian Imperial Force (AIF) was formed on 15 August 1914, in response to Britain declaring war on Germany, because existing militia forces were unable to serve overseas. The Australian Defence Force comprises the Royal Australian Navy (RAN), the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) and the Australian Army. Together these are known as the Tri-services. The three services operated more or less independently until an integrated command structure was established with the formation of the Australian Defence Force on 9 February 1976 Please check out my other Ebay items Postage Discount Available If purchasing more than one item please request an invoice or wait for one to be issued combining postage Orders over $40 will require registered mail Payment requested within 5 days unless otherwise arranged
