About This Unit

10th Brigade was in the 3rd Division of the AIF which was raised in 1916 as part of the  expansion of the AIF.  

The 10th Brigade was comprised of units that drew most of their men from Victoria and  comprised the 37th, 38th , 39th and 49th Battalions. 

The 3rd Division was to be commanded by Major  General John Monash and was concentrated in the UK for work up training during 1916, by which time all of the other Divisions had been committed to battle.  Deployed in very late 1916, the Third Division's first major action was at Messines in June 1917.
