Thesis "Desertion without execution : decisions that saved Australian Imperial Force deserters from the firing squad in World War One". Examines the desertion of members of the AIF from the Western Front during the 1914-1918 war. Focuses on the fact that Australian deserters were only liable for a term of imprisonment as punishment for their desertion while British and other Commonwealth troops were shot. Discusses the pressures by the British to bring the Australians into line with other forces and looks at Australia's resistance to this idea. Also examines the origin of the "No Death" clause, the cases of four Australian deserters and the political climate and the consequences of the debate. BA (Hons) La Trobe University, Melbourne, 1984.
