8th Brigade (8BDE) Australian Army Coin

The 8th Brigade (8BDE) stands as a proud symbol of the Australian Army Reserve, headquartered in Sydney, with a history of service and sacrifice spanning over a century. This Reserve training formation boasts subordinate units across New South Wales and other parts of Australia, dedicated to delivering essential training to Reserve soldiers.

A Rich History of Service
Founded in 1912, the 8th Brigade has played a pivotal role in Australia’s military history. Re-raised in Egypt in 1916 as part of the First Australian Imperial Force, the brigade served valiantly on the Western Front in France and Belgium during World War I. In World War II, it shifted focus to defending Australia, participating in the Huon Peninsula campaign, and aiding in the capture of Madang.

In the modern era, the brigade evolved into a training formation under the 2nd Division and, in 2024, transitioned to Forces Command as part of the Australian Army’s strategic reorganisation following the Defence Strategic Review.
