  • Le 1er bataillon d'infanterie australien est une division de l'armée de terre australienne. Bien que sa dénomination exacte (1er) lui soit donné pendant la Première Guerre mondiale, la lignée du 1er bataillon peut être remontée jusqu'en 1854, lorsqu'une unité des Volunteer Rifles (fusillers volontaires) est levée à Sydney, en Nouvelle-Galles du Sud. Cette unité a depuis été redésignée à plusieurs reprises mais, grâce à ses liens avec les unités de la force de défense coloniale de la Nouvelle-Galles du Sud, l'histoire du bataillon inclut des services au Soudan et en Afrique du Sud.
