RAF in Zambia 1960s

The first cover, with a 6 line cachet, is dated 1965. Google appears confident that the RAF left Zambia in 1966. However the second cover, with a 5 line cachet, is dated in June 1968. Any info on the later presence?

Thanks

Jim

Jim - nothing I can add to this except to say that they are listed in our FPHS Newsletter (now Journal) No 145 (July/August 1977) by John Daynes in his article "British Forces Postage Concession Markings". He said nothing specific about any of the cachets listed, but the two Zambian ones appear at the end of his article - identical to your cachets.
