The history of the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) roundel is a fascinating reflection of national identity and military heritage. Originating from its formation in 1921, the RAAF initially adopted the British Royal Air Force's roundel, symbolizing its ties to the Commonwealth. However, as Australia sought to establish a distinct national presence, the roundel underwent significant changes. During World War II, to avoid confusion with Japanese insignias, the red circle at the center was removed from the design, leaving a simple blue and white pattern. Finally, in 1956, the roundel evolved to feature a striking red kangaroo in motion, standing out against the blue and white concentric circles. This iconic emblem not only represents the agility and strength of the RAAF but also embodies Australia's unique identity on the global stage.
