The Australian Imperial Force (AIF) was an expeditionary force created on 15 August 1914 for service overseas in the Great War. All members were persons who voluntarily agreed to serve beyond the limits of the Commonwealth. The name Australian Imperial Force was chosen by its first commander, Brigadier General W. T. Bridges, as representing its dual Australian and Imperial mission. Today it is generally known as the First AIF, as a Second AIF was created for service in the Second World War. Altogether some 328,583 Australian men and 2,131 women enlisted in the First AIF in Australia. It was government policy not to accept enlistments overseas and only 56 exceptions were made.
