Description

A young Korean boy addressing an outdoors school assembly from an elevated mound somewhere in South Korea. The hundreds of children are lined up in classes with teachers or older students at the end of each line. This photograph is one of a series taken by the Australian Mr Douglas (Doug) Bushby in his capacity as a UN accredited War Correspondent. Mr Bushby devoted much of his time to relief and missionary work amongst Korean refugees, orphans and North Korean and Chinese prisoners of war.
