Australia traditionally has been equipped with British equipment, to include their helmets. During the Vietnam War, Australians began to use US equipment, to include our US M-1 steel helmet.
During the Korean War (1950 -1953) Australia responded by immediately offering military assistance. Some 17,000 Australians served in the Korean war.
They wore helmets long before world war 1.

British steel helmets were the only armor issued to US forces in World War 1.
I'll answer the question when I can understand it. Does this person mean "why did they wear helmets in WWI" or something else? The reason for wearing helmets dates back to Medieval times, when it was thought that wearing some sort of armour would protect people from swords, arrows and other war instruments. By the time the C20th had arrived, helmets had slimmed down considerably, compared to their Medieval ancestors. And, of course, they did very little to protect the wearer.
