Australian Forces Abroad Briefing Books
Drawing together existing knowledge concerning ADF and AFP deployments on missions outside Australia. By making such material accessible, a pool of common knowledge will be created which will assist the Australian community and those communities in which ADF and AFP forces are deployed to assess Australian government policy and its impact. Briefing Books already published deal with Australian Forces in Afghanistan, Solomon Islands, and Tonga. Subsequent Briefing Books will deal with Iraq, East Timor, and other Pacific deployments and relationships.
