The Singapore Connection
As part of a Memorandum of understanding signed between the Ministry of Defence (New Zealand) and the Ministry of Defence (Singapore) since 1985, the vast live-firing range of the camp had been used by the Singapore Army for the test firing of their 155 mm howitzer guns — such as the FH-88, FH-2000, SLWH Pegasus and the SSPH Primus. On several occasions, Waiouru army camp also played host to the visiting Singapore Army's artillery battalion during bi-lateral military training exercises.

Famous quotes containing the word connection:
“Self-expression is not enough; experiment is not enough; the recording of special moments or cases is not enough. All of the arts have broken faith or lost connection with their origin and function. They have ceased to be concerned with the legitimate and permanent material of art.”
—Jane Heap (c. 1880–1964)
