Description
Remains of an unknown soldier taken near barbed wire entanglements. Probably North Korean or Chinese and probably taken shortly after the July 28th ceasefire. At that time previously inaccessible areas were paid quick visits by Australian troops prior to their withdrawal south of the demilitarized zone. One of a series of photographs 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.
