Description
Possibly near Pakchon, North Korea. Medical orderlies gently lift the stretcher carrying a wounded mate onto a waiting jeep for evacuation to Base Hospital. The injured soldier, probably Australian or British, has been wrapped in a blanket. One of the stretcher bearers is wearing a heavy winter coat and balaclava indicating the increasing bite in the Korean winter wind.
