Description

North Korean prisoners of war (POWs) standing outside one of the barracks buildings at Nonsan POW camp. A guard tower and part of the perimeter fence are at the right rear and the figure in uniform in the centre foreground waving at the camera, is probably US Army 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.
