Quote:
"Tasmania Force"(page 14). Initiallly all army units were commanded by the local Military District Headquarters. Field Troops in Tasmania used a Brown Owl on a Branch as their Formation Sign. During the 1942 reorganisation of the Army in Australia, those field army elements in Tasmania were designated "Tasmania Force".
Personnel recruited and trained by this organisation were in the main used as reinforcements for mainland or overseas units.
The organisation was disbanded late in 1943.
