Just going on the name of one brother  'Terence' [I assume] who might have enlisted for ww2, I can see such a person
Terence John Cross joined up  as an 18 yr old in Nsw.  He was single and an apprentice plumber.
His Next Of Kin was his father John Thomas Cross and John was living in at a Canberra address.
Does this sound likely your family?

Hi everyone thanks for getting back to me,
the only other information that i can clarify is that my Grandmother Leanora married my Grandfather Alfred Tressilian Maslen on the 20th May 1944 in Seymour Victoria.
There children are David (my Father) and Helen.
The Terence connection in Canberra is a definite possibility as that is where he lives/lived his wife was Mary and children are Ron and Helen (Nell).
