A bit more about us…

CONTACT is independently owned and operated by a proud Aussie Veteran.

The CONTACT web site (http://www.militarycontact.com) is our internet-based headquarters where we publish daily news and other interesting, relevant items. 

We also use

The CONTACT newsletter is a free fortnightly email-based publication that draws attention to recent news stories. Its intent is to bring readers the best of the previous fortnight in a handy-reference format, as well as ‘blog-style’ articles produced specifically for the newsletter.

CONTACT Air Land & Sea magazine is a high-quality, full-colour, features-based magazine published four times per year. Initially launched in March 2004 as a traditional paper-based magazine, it switched to digital in 2013. It is now only available by FREE subscription – http://www.aussiecombat.com – though our archives here – http://www.contactairlandandsea.com/magazine-archives/ are now restricted to Patrons only.

HOWEVER – our ultimate goal is to get back to printing CONTACT on honest-to-goodness touchie-feelie paper again. And we will do that if/when we get enough support. See our Patreon page (https://www.patreon.com/contactmagazine) for details of how you can help.

CONTACT BACK IN PRINT – who doesn’t want to see that happen!!!


Thank you for your interest and support.
I very much appreciate it,
