Description
An Australian Land Rover featuring a large spare tire stops at a Vietnamese checkpoint, behind a Peugot that has been converted to a utility taxi. One of 477 colour 35mm transparencies taken or collected by 2784336 Signalman (Sig) Stuart Lindsay Weller, 104 Signal Squadron, relating to his service in Vietnam between 1967 and 1968. Sig Weller notes: "Why we were stopped behind the local vehicle at this point I don’t know, as we weren’t required to stop at the Vietnamese check points at the channel bridges. If I were a Vietnamese civilian I don’t think I’d argue with a man who carried an M16 either."
