I'm working on putting still pictures up on USG2WS.

In news reports I've seen both LAV-25s and M113s. I haven't seen tanks.
I
have seen Blackhawks as transport.

Very few details, unfortunately. There was an article in a paper here a
few
days ago about the SAS, but naturally it was very vague - though it did
make
speculation/conclusions about what they were doing. The action on the
border
against the Indonesian troops got headline coverage here, and as there
was a
news crew with the unit there was actual video.

I apologise if anyone feels this is going off-topic, but as a player of
SG2
and with the amount of interest on this list of all things military, I
thought it relevant.
