Australia supported the U.S. to help fight the Japanese who bombed Darwin. If they did not support the U.S. the Japanese may have taken over the whole country. Australian soldiers fought many battles in the South Pacific and South East Asia from 1942-1944. Also a smaller number of Australian soldiers fought in Europe with the Allied forces.

What role did Australian men play in world war 2 especially those who didnt see active duty?
Who didn't see active duty? I'm going to make a guess your not Australian so let me explain. During WW2 Australia had the Japanese on her doorstep. Planes were bombing the northern towns and cities while warships and submarines sunk our ships in our seas. Australia was completely surrounded with Britain deciding to abandon Australia our only hope was ourselves. Over 1,000,000 million Australians served to defend Australia ranging in numerous battles across the Pacific. The Battle for Australia was without a doubt the darkest period in Australias history. Many of our men and women served in battle as it was effectively a total war for us. EVERYONE in Australia whether you were old or young had to contribute to Australias defence. Most if not all of Australias men were off fighting in the Pacific when the Americans arrived. As they began to steal our women the battle of Brisbane broke out to stop them. So in effect Australia was fighting Japan and fighting off American Imperialism at the same time.
