Caption from another pic AWM 018034 (which is not need here):
"Queensland. 22 January 1945. Informal group portrait of AIF veterans of the Middle East with Royal Marines who took part in the Normandy landing. Royal Marines who took part in the landing on D-Day on the Normandy front, are still manning the same landing craft used on that landing and are co-operating with famous AIF Divisions in amphibious landing operations in Australia. On arriving at this locality, the Royal Marines were issued with Australian felt hats and wear them with their famous Marine badge in place of the rising sun."
