HOBJ2566 Accession Number: HOBJ2566

Description

For weeks Communist propaganda notices have been left where UN troops could find them. A soldier from the 3rd Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment (3RAR), holds a notice which reads 'Think, that you don't strive for peace and you must die in Korea sooner or later.' The notices are a variation of the surrender leaflets which the Chinese were throwing out not long ago, and which Australian troops also declined to take very seriously.
