[edit] Help needed with the Liberation of Goa

hi... We're trying to get up a functional wikipedia page regarding the capture of the Portuguese colony of Goa by the Indians in 1961. So far we have had abundant information from indian military and history sources, but are faced with a paucity of information when it comes to portraying the Portuguese side of the conflict. we would appreciate any inputs you can offer in this regard for The Liberation of Goa

Do forgive me for calling it the 'Liberation of Goa'. I imagine that it would be called differently by the portuguese, and we would want to reflect that too in the page.

Thank you. Tigerassault 13:34, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] G36C and Colt M4

Regarding this two weapons listed in the Light Firearms section, this seems to be a mistake because there's no record of these weapons being used by any Army units. This mistake was probably due to confusion, since currently the Colt M4 is only used by the DAE and the G-36 is only used by the DAE and the Portuguese Air Force RESCOM (recently renamed).

I was wondering that too. Changing. HKFlash

[edit] Merge debate

What is the reason for the merge. I think that this article should stand alone, and am strongly opposed to a merger. I think it is of sufficient length to warrent its own article. Granted, the history on this particular page is pretty skimpy, but I saw a seperate link for Portugese Military History, saw that is already covered. I move the tag be removed.SAWGunner89 04:03, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
