Description
Unidentified members of the 3rd Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment (3RAR), lay down timber planks on a damaged rail bridge, with the aim of having the infantry clamber across it. It is possibly one of several bridges on the Chongchon River, North Korea, destroyed by retreating North Koreans. Other damaged bridges are in the background. Note the Bren Gun set up on the bridge behind the men.
