Still need to find out who the 2/28 were, as I assume they would have more of unit identity other than a number.

2/28 were the 28th Battalion of the 2nd Australian Imperial Force.
AIF Battalions did not have territorial names, but were linked to the Militia units which carried the battalion numbers from the WW1 1st AIF and also had territorial names. 2/28Bn was part of 24th Brigade, which was part of the 9th Division.
