I have uploaded a file for people to download covering a basic history of the use of the M113 by Australia during the Vietnam war. To go directly to the site: link or visit the e-zine where i also made an annoucement about the article: link Should any one want to submit an article for others to read on any topic relating to war games, then please let me know via email (as shown on the e-zine). |

Hi Ian Have you by any chance put together a list of wargame vehicles used by Australia during the Vietnam War? |
Chortle  | 15 Apr 2007 10:43 p.m. PST |
Thanks for that. I'm downloading your PDF now on my painfully slow internet connection. BTW, The Society of 20th Century wargamers magazine had a couple of articles on Australian APCs and tanks in Vietnam. You can still get these in back issues if you are interested. |

in the process – i will be doing a list of figures made in all scales like i did with the Light Horse, and that will include vehs. I will also be posting some other articles on Aussie/ANZAC involvement in the Vietnam war in the next few days (or weeks seeing as ANZAC day is upon us and i will be busy) too. Of course, you can feel free to submit any articles/lists for the e-zine/site too :-) |

Chortle – very interested in the Aussie APC articles from the 20th mag. Where can i get them? Also, my APC aricle is only a brief history/guide line – i hope it is worth the download speed you have :-) |

"Awesome" as expected Ian Regards

Cheers Anton. I am contemplating turning my web site/e-zine into an ANZAC site as opposed to just Australian Wargaming. |

You can check out SOTCW on sotcw.net For back issues contact Phil Gray phil@grayuk.clara.co.uk I think the articles you are looking for are on one of the 'Compendiums' of back issues. I don't know which one, but Phil will have the complete list. Cheers Neil |

Jesus, It's the start of a very slippery slope when you let the Kiwis in :-) |

Shelldrake I've just sent some PDFs over, let me know what you think of them. Like the Callsign listing, very useful John FOA |

Troopwo – i will look out for the book – cheers. John FoA – got the PDFs – many many thanks. |

"Jungle Tracks. Australian Armour in Viet Nam" by Gary McKay and Graeme Nicholas (ISBN 1 86508 449 2)covers both the tanks and APCs. |

They're not very relevant, though. Bushmasters didn't enter service until the late 1990s. |
