Description

Unidentified soldiers from the 3rd Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment (3RAR), smile and laugh as they enjoy a hot shower in a large tent. It is possibly the first shower they have had in many weeks. Light shines through the large holes in the tent. Steam from the showers seems to have fogged up the lens of the camera.
