An informal portrait of 330264 Gunner (Gnr) Trenton (Trent) Prince, an Australian signaller (seconded from the Artillery Corps) serving with the Australian Force Communications Unit (FCU) contingent of the United Nations Transitional Authority in Cambodia (UNTAC). Gnr Prince, carrying a Steyr F88 rifle and wearing full patrol equipment, including a portable radio pack, is on perimeter patrol outside standing outside the main Australian base at Phnom Penh, known to the Cambodians as 'Pteah Australii', just a few days after he was released by the Khmer Rouge. Gnr Prince served as signals support for the Pakistani Battalion and UN military observers (UNMOs) at Phnom Thbeng Meanchey, the provincial capital of Preah Vihear, and at CT1, a forward base near the borders of Cambodia, Laos and Thailand. On 1 August 1993 and while at CT1, Gnr Prince, three UNMOs and 16 Pakistani soldiers were attacked, captured and held by the Khmer Rouge for eight hours, apparently with some assistance from the Thai military, who also negotiated their release.
