The Alfred Edwin
COUPLAND who died at Tamworth NSW in 1984 is not your man. He was 77 years of age and the parents aren’t a match.
There is a service file on NAA
http://www.naa.gov.au/collection/search/index.aspx and it is possible it is your Albert Edwin. I think there are some errors in transcription. He enlisted at Wodonga which is near Albury NSW and NOK is Alla which is possibly a mistranscription of Annie. You would need to purchase the file to see if it was your man.
