Summary
In the first week of October 1960, Captains Hutomo Nastap and Harjo Sutarmo arrived in Australia to undertake air support and junior officers’ tactical courses at Australian Army schools.1 As the first members of the Indonesian Army to train in Australia, their arrival marked the start of a cooperative relationship between the armies of Indonesia and Australia which has endured into the 2020s.
