Description

A view of a hill in Korea where the 3rd Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment (3RAR), have been in search of North Korean or Chinese troops. Tracks can be seen leading up to and around what appears to be a camp near the top of the hill. Many of the tree trunks on the hill have been broken off midway and there are no shell holes on the ground, indicating the damage has been caused by mortar or machine gun fire, or air burst artillery.
