The actual rank insignia used by the Australians is more the same of those used by the British and other Commonwealth Dominion forces - there may be slight variations (such as the Canadian rank insignia, which has the rank of Master Corporal, and incorporates the Canadian maple leaf into the insignia), but the structure follows the British example, and the crown is an ever present feature on the insignia badges of certain ranks, military unit insignia, etc. (note: this only applies to the actual Commonwealth Dominions/Realms, who acknowledge the British monarch as head of state. Not all countries who are members of the Commonwealth of Nations are Commonwealth Dominions, and the crown is absent from their insignia).
