the conditions for the Australian soldiers was the same as all of the previous wars. But the soldiers this time didnt come back as Heroes, they suffered, faught in the worst conditions ever, against a strong army who lives in jungles and were finlly defeated.

the weather and Vietnam's climax made it very difficult for the soldiers to fight, the enemy was very tough, they had very smart techniques and one of them was the Guerilla warfare, the most difficult type to fight. As well as the issues involved in the Vietnam War were never straightforward, which made the fighting harder.

The same effect it had on American GI's, but on a lesser scale, due to the smaller population of Australia compared to America's bigger population, and the larger amount of US troops in Vietnam compared to the smaller amount of Australian troops in Vietnam.
