How come not the slightest bit of evidence has come to light that the us military was involved. Amazing that 20 years later someone has not bragged.

It would have been very risky for the US nationals involved. Could have lost their careers if caught.

After doing some more research on activity in the area around that time I have amended my previous post to just read Army.

DF; If you are referring to the one in YPAG (there were two actually, way back then...) it was a bloody good place to eat after the two days of the Mail Run.

Managed to drag Johnno, once or twice, to the one nearest the Motel we stayed in.

Though he really preferred the 'West Side!' (Their 'Outback Whiting' was superb!

Lol good old Johnno - always used to amuse me that his first missus was a vegetarian!
