Description

Informal portrait of Australian UN accredited War Correspondent Donald Douglas George (Doug) Bushby (right) and two Republic of Korea (ROK) soldiers in a front line area. Tents and sandbagged dugouts are in the rear, and the fortifications, probably form part of the defensive line held by South Korean forces at the Armistice in July 1953. This photograph is one of a series taken by Mr Bushby in his capacity as a UN accredited War Correspondent. Mr Bushby devoted much of his time to relief and missionary work amongst Korean refugees, orphans and North Korean and Chinese prisoners of war.
