Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The Australian army’s connections with the other land forces of the British Commonwealth were both longstanding and deep. Just how longstanding and deep became clear when the Second Australian Imperial Force (AIF) moved away from fighting with the British and other Commonwealth armies in 1942 to fighting with the United States (US) forces during 1942–45. Changing army horses midstream was difficult. This article examines the cultural and military-structural ties that allowed the Australian army to cooperate with the military forces of the United Kingdom, the other dominions, and India, but which hampered any such collaboration with the US Army.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
