Welcome home digger
Description
Three figures stand below the words 'Welcome Home Digger'. A soldier is on the far left, being kissed by a figure playing the guitar and displaying a 'peace symbol' tattoo on their arm. A headstone with 'RIP Vietnam War 1962 - 1987' is at their feet. A woman wearing a flowered dress and flower in her hair is to their right with a despondent expression on her face.
