[edit] About correction.

Hutton was not C-in-C of Australian forces - the Constitution specifies that the Governor-General has that distinction. Hutton was General Officer Commanding Australian Military Forces (i.e., the Army).

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Rising sun version 3.gif

Image:Rising sun version 3.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] 4th Rising Sun

The 4th version of the rising sun was not issued as a badge until quite late in its life. I'm not sure of when it began to be produced, it certainly wasn't in issue in the early 1980s. Can any one shed light onto this? It may have appeared as a non produced design for some time. Ozdaren (talk) 10:50, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
