So we were flown over by the U.S. within Galaxy's, the massive cargo planes. And they literally flew in from Japan, picked us up. It's funny, our armoured vehicles, we had to paint them with house paint from Bunnings. Made a stencil, black "UN", and put on the side and spray painted that. But literally with a roller, painted the armoured vehicles with white house paint because that's what we did. And we tried to work out what we think UN would look like and the whole thing was white.
So normally you go from a camouflage armoured vehicle to white, which I've got a photo of, but just quite funny. And we literally sat at the airport. We sat there for a couple of days because we were the last to leave. I think the bobcat left before us, I don't know why, you'd think you'd have armoured vehicles in there first. But we went in there and we were the sort of last lift to get into the country. And flew from Townsville to Diego Garcia, refuelled in the middle of the Pacific and then flew straight into Kigali, and got in about 3:00 in the morning.
