Hi Ray , you are probably correct as the LLWA was formed in Adelaide could have concentrated on 'local' soldiers.

If the badges and bars were produced in Adelaide it would be easier to have the bars individually numbered.

Edit : Spotted one example of badge with makers mark "C.Bentley".

The LLWA were still going strong in November 1918 , the members were organised for the arrival of the French General Pau.
