Sorry for this two year old thread resurrection but just read this book.....
Anzac Cove to Afghanistan: The History of the 3rd Brigade
Apparently there was an ORBAT Review in 1979 that stated that the Australian Army needed to maintain a mobilization base to raise the following for the defense of Australia:
Two Corps
One Armoured Div
One Mechanized Div
Three Infantry Div
Just food for thought as I don’t know how long this was carried on in the 1980’s
