Description

Hiro, Honshu, Japan, c. 1950-09. Sitting at a drafting table, a member of the Intelligence Section, the 3rd Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment (3RAR), carefully uses a pen and ruler to mark a line on a map he is drawing. Resting on the table next to the map are a container for the soldier's pens, an opened bottle of ink, a pen, a razor blade and, on the edge of the table, a lighted cigarette. The soldier may be preparing the map for a training exercise that 3RAR is to undertake before its departure for Korea from BCOF. (Donor I. Robertson)
