Description
Korea. 22 May 1953. Members of the 2nd Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment (2RAR), who have been carrying out a strenuous period of training a few miles behind the front have completely integrated with the Korean Augmentation Troops, Commonwealth (KATCOMs) attached to them. These KATCOMs, of whom there are about 100 in the battalion, have quickly adapted themselves to the Australians' methods and weapons. Private C. (Mac) McCrae of Maryborough, Qld, and Corporal Jung Yung Ki of Chunju, Korea, both members of the Signals Platoon, do a line test at the Terminal Strip near Battalion Headquarters.
