Description
North Korea, c. 1950-11. In a valley below a wooded hill stands a village in which part of the 3rd Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment (3RAR), is camped. In the foreground, a battalion soldier wearing a hooded windproof jacket, pile cap, scarf and gloves is digging in a cornfield. Behind him, a jeep stands camouflaged under a stack of foliage. Other jeeps and trailers stand in and around the village, while in the midground (right) is the truck known as 'Pandora's Box' that serves as the mobile Command Post of the battalion's Commanding Officer, Lieutenant Colonel Ian Bruce Ferguson.
