Summary/Abstract

The provision of national security is one of the essential responsibilities of government. As the Japanese advance neared Australia in early 1942 it became clear that Australia's interwar political leadership had failed to provide adequately for the nation's security. This article explains how in 1942 Australia found itself virtually bereft of military power as well as the steps to remedy the crisis. In doing so, the article questions whether the recent budgetary decisions by today's political leadership will also result in an Army with a similar degree of unreadiness, and one that is incapable of meeting the challenges of today national security environment.
