Mesopotamian Half Flight (original) (raw)
- The Mesopotamian Half-Flight (MHF), or Australian Half-Flight, was the first Australian Flying Corps (AFC) unit to see active service during World War I. Formed in April 1915 at the request of the Indian Government, the half-flight's personnel were sent to Mesopotamia (modern-day Iraq) where they were equipped with a small number of outdated and barely serviceable aircraft. They later operated in the Tigris Valley in support of British and Indian forces under the command of Major General Charles Townshend. The unit's operations came to an end in December 1915 and the following month the flight was subsumed into other units of the AFC which were being formed in Egypt. It was officially disbanded in October 1916. (en)
- A Meia Esquadrilha da Mesopotâmia (MHF), ou Meia Esquadrilha Australiana, foi a primeira unidade do Australian Flying Corps (AFC) a ver serviço activo durante a Primeira Guerra Mundial. Formada em abril de 1915 a pedido do governo indiano, o pessoal da Meia Esquadrilha foi enviado para a Mesopotâmia (actual Iraque), onde foi equipado com um pequeno número de aeronaves desactualizadas e quase imperceptíveis. Posteriormente, eles operaram no Vale do Tigre em apoio às forças britânicas e indianas sob o comando do Major General . As operações da unidade chegaram ao fim em dezembro de 1915 e no mês seguinte a meia esquadrilha foi incorporada às demais unidades da AFC que estavam a ser formadas no Egipto. Foi oficialmente dissolvida em outubro de 1916. (pt)
