Description
Taegu area, Korea, c. 1950-09-30. Private (Pte) Tom Saunders (in singlet, left) and Corporal (Cpl) Jim Stark, both members of the Sniper Section, 3rd Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment (3RAR), crouch by a campfire in the battalion's assembly area. Holding a small mirror and a razor in his left hand, Pte Saunders is using a brush with his other hand to lather up his face in preparation for a shave. Cpl Stark has a towel over his shoulder and is taking something from what may be a toiletry bag or pouch. Two opened tins stand in the fire and, behind them, a bottle of pills and a dixie. (Donor I. Robertson)
