Description

An informal portrait of 4410203 Sergeant (Sgt) Michael (Mike) Coleridge, an Army Public Relations photographer who served in Vietnam from 19 November 1966 to 21 November 1967 in the field covering his last operation in Vietnam. Sgt Coleridge is holding a Bell and Howell Filmo Series 70 16mm triple turret movie camera in his hand. Mike Coleridge is the photographer responsible for taking the photograph etched on the Vietnam Memorial on Anzac Parade, Canberra. The parallel lines across this photograph are a defect in the film.
