orphan date December 2008 The ANZAC A badge is a brass insignia authorised in November 1917 for members of the First Australian Imperial Force who had served as a member of the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps Australian and New Zealand Army Corps ANZACs at the Battle of Gallipoli . In 1918, eligibility was extended to those who had served at Lemnos , Imbros and Tenedos and the transports and hospitals off Gallipoli as well as the communications line to Egypt. History The origins of the award are uncertain with John Monash General Monash , William Birdwood General Birdwood and John Gellibrand Sir John Gellibrand credited with the idea in various accounts. The most likely version is that the award was a result of several ideas proposed in early 1916 to commemorate the Anzacs. When Monash led his brigade in commemorating the first Anzac Day , men who had served at Gallipoli wore a blue ribbon on his right breast and those who had gone ashore as part of the first landing wore a red ribbon as well. Birdwood advised in August 1916 that he supported Australian veterans of the ANZAC campaign wearing an A badge on their colours. The Australian 1st Division World War I 1st Division and Australian 2nd Division World War I 2nd Division supported the idea enthuastically. The Australian 3rd Division 3rd Division and Australian 4th Division 4th Division which had fewer ANZAC veterans in their ranks were less enthuastic in their adoption of the badge. However, Monash as Commander of the 3rd ... had been equal to the Anzacs. ANZAC rosettes were also worn by men who had joined in 1914 and came home on ANZAC leave to show that they had not been shirking their duty.
