Description

Music during the morning "smoko" has become a regular feature of the working day for members of the 1st Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment (1RAR), who are building huts on their new camp site in preparation for the severe Korean winter. A few lively tunes by the Battalion band helps this work along. Lance Corporal (Chas) Parmenter of Lismore, NSW, has played trombone with the band for four years. He is seen here practising the trombone. Behind him are two other unidentified band members, one on the drum.
