Follow up

I noted that Betano was in Portuguese Timor and that Teddy Sheehan was mentioned in despatches. However, I think further work is required on the article. The soldiers being landed were from Timor and the only three Australian soldiers on board survived. The major loss of those who abandoned ship and who were not rescued is not mentioned. The death toll suffered by the Armidale was the highest suffered by a Bathurst class corvette. And perhaps there could be mention of the other ships involved in the operation.--Anthony Staunton (talk) 23:19, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
