HOBJ1714 Accession Number: HOBJ1714

Description

Unidentified reinforcements for the 3rd Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment (3RAR), as they take their first sight of the country over which they have been trained to fight. Not long afterwards, these soldiers were getting their cold-weather clothing issue and all scouted for flap-eared wool-lined caps to replace the traditional slouch hat, which is not so practical in winter warfare. They have arrived in Korea on an RAAF 77 Squadron aircraft.
