Description

An unidentified sentry from A Company, 3rd Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment (3RAR), looks through his binoculars towards the distant mountains from his position in an observation post (OP), at the company forward base at Stass. The OP sits on top of a sandbagged blockhouse with a corrugated iron roof and is open to the elements apart from a flimsy bamboo frame which supports a sheet of canvas.
