this page needs updating 3rar were in afghanistan in 2012 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.149.45.30 (talk) 13:44, 13 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Gday. I think this is already mentioned. Pls see the last sentence of the section entitled "Afghanistan" which states: "3 RAR formed the basis of a battle group that was deployed to the country again in 2012 tasked with mentoring the Afghan National Army 4th Brigade, 205th Corps, before handing over to 7 RAR in November."

Image of GEN Van Fleet, US Army with 3RAR

In this image the Digger on the far right is CPL James Stewart "Blue" or "Bluey" Newell, 23573; I reckon. Regrettably Bluey passed away recently. We was good mates. I have seen photos of him in his younger days, it sure looks like him. I'll ask the Boss in the meanwhile. Duty First Tjlynnjr (talk) 20:06, 20 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
