BACK FROM MALAYSIA
N.Z. Canberra Squadron
(N.Z. Press Association)
PALMERSTON N, Nov. 11 The R.N.Z.A.F.’s No. 14 Canberra Squadron returned to Ohakea today after more than two years service in Malaya. The squadron played a significant role in New Zealand's contribution to the forces defending Malaysia from attacks by Indonesian terrorists. In September, 1964, Squad-ron-Leader G. Wallingford took his squadron to an air exercise in Malaysia. The men of No. 14 Squadron expected to be overseas for a month, but the Canberra's stay in Malaysia was extended and in April, 1965 the posting became permanent.
