The first combined Operation was with Whiskey 2, where we walked to their lines,
boarded APCs and did a short clearing task in the Horseshoe area.

The main body of the 6^th Royal Australian Regiment (6 RAR), arrived in Vung Tau on the 18^th May,
1969 and were then airlifted to Nui Dat. 

On the 21st May, the three Australian Infantry Companys (A, B and D) and the two NZ Infantry
Companys (W2 and V4), became part of 6 RAR.

The Kiwis were referred to by the Aussies as W and V Company.

We were now operating as an ANZAC Rifle Battalion under the formal title of  6 RAR/NZ (ANZAC) BATTALION.
