I...From: CPL of The Royal Netherlands Marine Corps,<br />I my self was in Dutch New Guinea from 1961-1962. I was in action against Indonesian Paratroopers myself on the Onin Peninsula above Fak Fak. Your story is fully besides all truth. The Netherlands Forces didn.t had Paratroopers at that time, and None of the Indonesian Paratroopers have ever landed on barracks of Dutch Army, also they never captured any City or Village. Most of all the Indonesian landed Forces by parachute or by sea were captured or killde by Royal Netherlands Marines or Royal Netherland Army Forces. There is NOT any succes made by Indonesian Forces in Dutch New Guinea, even NOT by Benny Moerdani. Operation Trikora was a total Failure of Indonesia, untill forced negotations by the US, between The Netherlands and Indonesia through United Nations became effective on August 1th 1962. Benny Moerdani and 30 of his troops came at last on August 29th 1962 out of the bush near Merauke, to surrender to Dutch and UN Forces.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15728764227326631570noreply@blogger.com
