Coming up Hill 210 in changeover from Leicester Regiment
Description
Australian soldiers from 1 Battalion Royal Australian Regiment, Commonwealth Division, toiling up Hill 210 for a changeover from the Leicestershire Regiment near the Samichon River, North Korea. The men are labouring up the steep slope under a heavy load of personal belongings, supplies and rifles; they appear strained and exhausted.
