The
Armed Forces Canteen Council is a non-profit organization which operates
facilities at military bases, the profits from which are used for a wide variety
of activities. In this case, they include funding SW broadcasts via
RNZI. It's similar to the Australian Army Amenities
Service which funded a network of 22 radio stations in Australia, the Pacific,
SE Asia and Japan during WWII. They had more mothers knitting and holding
raffles so could afford more stations than NZers <grin>
