Description

Chipyong-ni, Korea, c. 1951-03. At a rest area for troops, members of the 3rd Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment (3RAR), sit on the slopes of a hill and listen to a concert given by the band of the US Army's 24th Division (left). The band is performing on a stage built by 3RAR's assault pioneers, while behind the stage smoke rises from a small fire. In the midground (centre) is a truck and trailer which serves to transport the band and its instruments. A sign on the side of the vehicle refers to it as the 'Clubmobile'. Neat farm plots with haystacks standing in them stretch away to the hills in the background. The soldiers in the foreground are wearing pile caps to keep their heads warm. (Donor I. Robertson)
