Description
Commander of the 1st Australian Task Force (1ATF), Brigadier B. A. McDonald (left), presents Colonel Tao, the chief instructor at the Vietnamese Army's Signal School at Vung Tau, with $10,000 worth of medical supplies for use in the School's dispensary. The gift was part of an overall gift of $100,000 worth of medical supplies to the dispensary and other Vietnamese medical centres. The supplies became available with the closing down of the 1st Australian Field Hospital (1AFH), and would have been unserviceable if returned to Australia as they were subjected to expiry dates or changes in temperature.
