Brilliantly written....
Mentions specifically that it's an RNZAF exercise, that it's an RNZAF camp, yet somehow still insists it's an army camp.

It is a modern day problem with all three services wearing Disruptive Pattern Material (DPM)
clothing for field exercises and operations.
Hence "Army helicopters" "Army saliors" etc
and of course the reason for "Air Force" painted on Iroquois

It almost seems like the person who wrote the headline looked at a photo and didn't read the article.

Just got back from Samoa last night and can confirm that all three services are involved. The HMNZS Canterbury transported the Iroquois there and the Airforce is flying them. Also yesterday one of our Orions was stationed at Faleolo. I had the chance to talk to some of the territorials from Waiouru who were returning to Whenuapai aboard the Boeing 757 yesterday. So both Army and Air Force camps.
