New Official NZ Language: US English

Can I view a New Zealand Defense Force Personnel file in the Reading Room?

Although many of the New Zealand Defense Force Personnel files held at Archives New Zealand are listed as ‘open access’ these records cannot be released to researchers in the Reading Room. This is because the records contain fragile pieces of microfilm.

DefenSe???  

And I thought that we were still part of the Commonwealth that speak the Queen's English.  Silly me.  

It's bad enough that everything New Zealand has the unofficial additional native tag of Aotearoa added to it, but you guys at Archives NZ really need to use a UK English spell checker.
