Korea, c. 1951. On a dirt track hemmed in by steep hills, a member of the 3rd Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment (3RAR), stands in front of a group of porters from the Republic of Korea (ROK) Service Corps. Beside the track (right) are the barrel of a Vickers medium machine gun leaning against its tripod, some soldiers' packs and, at rear, another 3RAR soldier. In the background (right), smoke rises from some battalion campfires, while patches of late winter snow lie on the ground. (Donor I. Robertson)
