Was this not the operation that a few USN or USMC Phantoms got “zapped” with “Colonial Navy” Tags and roundels? Have seen some pics… anybody have them?

Yes they did cross-decking. Check out the Helicopter Service Australia site below.

Below is the thread about RN vs. USN carrier exercises in the 1970’s I started in sci.military.naval six years ago.
