Collection relating to the Vietnam War service of Jean Heather Debelle (Lamensdorf), Red Cross Field Force, Vietnam, 1966-1968.
Collection consists of three documents including a Regimental Record of Service, a letter from Jean to Corporal R Eglinton and a Christmas letter written by a Vung Tau high school student. Prior to her service in Vietnam Jean worked as a journalist for the Adelaide Advertiser, with the letter to Eglinton suggesting she had attempted to contact a journalist friend of hers on behalf of the soldier who was looking for employment opportunities after discharge. The Christmas letter is addressed to 'Dear Allied Soldier' and appears to have been written generically by the student in 1966.
