Description

Vietnam. 1967-08. Lance Corporal Les Cowan of Everton Park, Qld, has grown quite a set of whiskers. Les looks like winning the Nui Dat moustache growing competition at the Australian Task Force. He is a driver for the Task Force Commander Brigadier Stuart Graham. The irony is that in his spare time he is the Headquarters Task Force barber.
