Description
Three members of the United Nations (UN) negotiating team on their way to witness the signing of the truce in the hastily built building at Punmanjon on 27 July 1953, flanked by two unidentified Military Policemen (MP). Identified, left to right: US Air Force Major General, probably Edgar E Glenn; Rear Admiral John C Daniel (partially obscured); Brigadier General Ralph M Osborne, US Army, 3rd Division. All are wearing a light blue paper identification tag on their shirts.

Mr Bushby devoted much of his time to missionary work amongst Korean refugees, orphans and North Korean and Chinese prisoners of war.
