There were none at Normandy. Other than the Pacific the only theater 
of operations the Aussies appeared in was North Africa. Specifically, 
the 7th and 9th infantry. Once the Japanese entered the war, all 
Australian troops were withdrawn to defend Australia, and later 
served in the Dutch East Indies theater.

So it's American, British, Canadian, Polish, or French I'm afraid, if 
you set it in Normandy.

Or, you could do an Indonesian campaign.
