Description

Miserable weather failed to dampen the spirits of the 1st Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment (1RAR), when it embarked for Australia on the troopship, New Australia, at Inchon, Korea, after two years facing the Communists (North Koreans and Chinese) on the truce line. On the ship, it didn't take these unidentified soldiers long to start a game of cards soon after moving into their cabins.
