An Australian sailor, possibly Sick Berth Attendant J P Hazell, instructs an unidentified Army medic in the use of medical equipment kept in the sick bay of the troop transport HMAS Sydney. At the time, the ship was carrying elements of 5 and 6 Battalions, The Royal Australian Regiment (5RAR and 6RAR), on the ship's third military deployment to Vietnam. Soldiers onboard were kept occupied in daily routines and, where applicable, were familiarised with the specialist duties performed by their naval counterparts.
