The change list for CHS version 1.02 is complete. We have not addressed some recently raised points as the update has already been considerably delayed. We would like to get the ANZAC HQ and 393rd NBS changes out there. The list is below. Actually making and verifying the changes will take a day or perhaps two. I would appreciate comments and corrections for items on this list or for major items that may have been excluded. This is a complete list and supercedes all prior postings. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The following bases in and around Australia will be assigned to ANZAC (HQ 110). 258 - Broken Hill 259 - Coen 260 - Charleville 261 - Cloncurry 262 - Daly Waters 263 - Geraldton 265 - Port Kembla 266 - Albany 267 - Exmouth 314 - Whyalla 316 - Geelong 320 - Newcastle 692 - Nauru Island 698 - Aitape 699 - Dagua 700 - Wewak 701 - Hansa 702 - Saidor 704 - Madang 705 - Finschhafen 706 - Lae 707 - Buna 708 - Salamaua 710 - Milne Bay 711 - Port Moresby 712 - Dobodura 714 - Rabaul 715 - Gasmata 716 - Talasea 717 - Arawe 718 - Sag Sag 721 - Kavieng 722 - Samo 723 - Admiralty Islands 724 - New Hanover Island 725 - Emirau Island 726 - Mussau Island 727 - Tabar Island 728 - Green Island 730 - Panggoe 731 - Kiriwina Island 732 - Woodlark Island 733 - Rossel Island 734 - Deboyne Island 735 - Goodenough Island 736 - Fergusson Island 737 - Normanby Island 738 - Thursday Island 739 - Tassafaronga 740 - Takataka 741 - Buka 742 - Torokina 743 - Buin 744 - Shortlands 745 - Vella Lavella 746 - Munda 747 - Rekata Bay 748 - Thousand Ships Bay 749 - Russell Islands 750 - Lunga 751 - Tulagi 752 - Rennell Island 753 - Stewart Island 754 - Irau 756 - Darwin 757 - Wyndham 758 - Derby 759 - Broome 760 - Perth 761 - Adelaide 762 - Devonport 763 - Hobart 764 - Melbourne 765 - Canberra 766 - Sydney 767 - Brisbane 768 - Rockhampton 769 - Townsville 770 - Cairns 771 - Cooktown 772 - Charters Towers 778 - Alice Springs The following Air Units will move from ABDA to Australia Command.
