Description
North Korean prisoners of war (POWs) standing outside one of the barracks buildings at Nonsan POW camp. The figure in the left foreground, smiling at a prisoner sitting on some steps 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.
