Description

Reorganisation and changes in concept made 1974 an important year for the Army. After nearly 30 years of concentration on jungle warefare skills, the Army is again training for combat in open country while maintaining its links with other countries in the region. This film covers the biggest peacetime operations held in Australia in which troops from the United States and Malaysia also participated.
