September 16th, 17th and 18th 1982: During the Israeli 'Operation: Peace for Galilea' the lebanese falangista militia, under Israeli army protection led by Ariel Sharon, massacre 2750 palestinian and lebanese civilians in the refugee camps of Sabra and Shatila outside Beirut.

A series of documentary works that look back at some of the activities and events carried out at the Defence establishment at Salisbury, South Australia. Built in the early 1940s as the Explosives Factory Salisbury, it came to prominence again as the Long Range Weapons Establishment (LRWE) which was opened in April 1947. The name changed to Weapons Research Establishment (WRE) in 1955, Defence Research Centre Salisbury (DRCS) in 1978, and Defence Science and Technology Organisation (DSTO) in 1987. It finally looks ahead to a major site rationalisation in 1997, after which DSTO Salisbury will be a much more compact site. The video also describes the close relationship between the defence research establishments at Woomera and Salisbury.
