Incorrect Unit in Belgian OOB#27
Unit #211, Puma Helicopter should be removed. It was never used by the Army but by the Rijkswacht (Federal Police).

The problem with this otherwise good idea is that renders the Belgians without a "heavy lifting" helicopter after 1998. So either the Army "borrows" these from the Federal Police or we find something else to take it's place or we end the formation in 1998

This page .. http://www.baha.be/Webpages/Navigato...1945_today.htm
says they ended service in 1998 anyway

Aerospatiale SA330L/H Puma OL-G01 > OL-G03 3 07/73 > 05/98
