Description
As an unidentified scout from 3RAR looks on (right), an Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN) scout in Tiger camouflage (left) holds a lit match to an opium pipe being smoked by Sapper Davis of 1 Field Squadron, Royal Australian Engineers (RAE). Tobacco rather than opium has apparently been put in the pipe.
