Second World War
The Commonwealth and Empire were involved in every major theatre of the Second World War. This included the establishment of the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan by the governments of the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand for pilots from across the Empire and its Dominions. Immediately after the war, troops from Australia, Britain, India and New Zealand made up the British Commonwealth Occupation Force in Japan. It was subsequently the basis of the British Commonwealth forces in Korea.
