Did you know... that the Australian Army's 1965–6 secret incursions into Indonesia during Australia's involvement in the Indonesia-Malaysia Confrontation were not officially acknowledged until 1996?

RAAF involvement?

Useful article, Nick - were you planning to add anything on the RAAF involvement (mentioned in intro but not really addressed in the body)? Not that familiar with it myself but I did discover a bit when expanding the article on No. 81 Wing RAAF a while back - see second last para. Let me know if you'd like me to incorporate this and anything else I can find, unless you wanted to take care of it yourself... Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 05:19, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

That would be great Ian - none of my sources say what the RAAF did. Nick-D (talk) 06:12, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, on my list... ;-) Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 06:36, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
