Phuoc Tuy Province, Vietnam, c. 1967-05. Members of the 7th Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment (7RAR), watching a US Army Chinook helicopter deliver a load of anti-personnel mines, which are to be laid in an 11-kilometre long minefield the Australians are constructing from Dat Do to the coast. The two soldiers in the midground are standing next to stacked-up crates of mines that have already been delivered.
