Description

Members of an 'F' Troop, 2 Squadron, Special Air Service (SAS) patrol, flanked by a pair of M113A1 armoured personnel carriers (APC's), change into their camouflage uniform prior to reaching the 'drop point' to commence a 'walk in' patrol into the Long Hai Hills. The SAS patrol travelled to this point in normal ‘jungle greens’ to conceal their purpose from enemy agents.
