I have just deleted the line refering to military aviation running 2 helicopters. They no longer have an active aviation arm, nor do they have any aircraft.--202.151.27.201 02:06, 16 July 2006 (UTC)daniel

[edit] Disbanded Special Forces

I changed the part about the "Zulu" company of Special Forces as it is my understanding they were disbanded in November of 2005 after an uprising of sorts by some of its' members Bob the Joker

[edit] Reserve Numbers

Does anyone know the number of reservists? I've seen numbers from 350 to 6000. Goldfishsoldier 00:05, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

It's my understanding the Fiji military does not maintain a "Reserve" branch as the US does. However, the 3rd Battalion, which in peace time is in operational command of the 4, 5, 7 and 8th Battalions, is stationed within Fiji itself and maintains a lower level of alert and used for policing more than military activites as opposed to the 1st and 2nd Battalions. But as far as a reserve branch I do not believe one to be in exsistence. Bob the Joker 01:21, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
