Description
Portrait of 216347 Sergeant (Sgt) Phillip Charles (Phil) Hutchings, of 2 Advanced Ordnance Depot (2AOD), standing on the driver's seat of an armed personnel carrier (APC), M113 A1 with a T50 turret, outside the windows of the 2AOD building. The guns have been removed from the APC perhaps for servicing. Sgt Hutchings commenced his tour of duty in Vietnam in January 1969 and returned to Australia at the end of January 1970.
