The majority of sea and air assets assigned to Korea were withdrawn with the initial troops to deal with the problem closer to home and never returned (damaged/destroyed as mentioned in the books). 9 Brigade were used by the UN/US commanders in Korea to secure rear areas and as of 2000 are looking for some way of getting home.

Out of curiosity, when did the fighting start between Australia and Indonesia? Did it kick off in PNG?
