Description
Several hundred North Korean prisoners of war (POWs) holding up bibles, probably given to them by the Korean Bible Society. The barbed wire perimeter fence of Nonsan POW camp is just to the rear of the seated group. This photograph is one of a series taken by the Australian Mr Douglas (Doug) 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.
