Description
North Korean prisoners of war (POWs) singing hymns at Nonsan POW camp church service conducted by a United States Army chaplain, probably Chaplain Harold Voelkel. 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. Mr Bushby may be the man conducting the service beside the pulpit at centre right.
