Australian soldiers, probably of 2RAR stand around a Chinese officer, Hshwang Shon Kwang, squatting and partly obscured) as he signs a green 'peace' flag, with unarmed Chinese soldiers looking down from their positions. Donald Douglas George (Doug) Bushby, a UN accredited war correspondent was visiting the Australian position just after the cease fire, and with the assistance of Australian troops made contact with the Chinese forces. During the conversation Bushby offered the Chinese officer, who spoke perfect English, his wallet as a gift, and asked if he could have one of the 'peace' flags in exchange. The Chinese obliged and the brought two flags to the Australians, signing both with Bushby's pen. On the red flag, which Bushby kept, he wrote "Presented by the Chinese People's Volunteers. We Chinese want peace and the British want peace too. We will unite to bring peace to the whole world."
