Description
An unidentified soldier, probably a member of the 3rd Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment (3RAR), enjoys opening a Christmas parcel at a camp in Korea. Each wooden box contains items such as beer, biscuits, sweets, tinned foods, tobacco and soap. The soldier is reading the card which states that the present is from the Daily Telegraph Sydney Korean Christmas Box Fund. Note the bottle of beer has been wrapped in straw to prevent breakage.
