Description

Lieutenant General Horace Clement Hugh ‘Red Robbie’ Robertson (left), Commander-in-Chief of the British Commonwealth Occupation Forces (BCOF), Japan; Lieutenant Colonel [Ian] Bruce Ferguson (centre), Commanding Officer of 3rd Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment (3RAR); and Brigadier (Brig) Basil Coad (right), Commander of the 27th British Commonwealth Brigade, examine a map during Robertson's visit of inspection to 3RAR. The photograph was probably taken by Lloyd Brown, photographer for Melbourne's Herald and Sun newspapers, who was embedded with other Australian correspondents in Korea from August to December 1950.
