Description

Korea, c. 1951-03. The dead body of a Chinese Communist soldier lies in a weapon pit or dugout where he was killed. The soldier is clutching a captured American .30-06 M1 Garand rifle. An ammunition clip containing five bullets lies at right and, above it, a wicker bowl filled with rice, the dead man's rations. (Donor I. Robertson) (Compare image P01813.857)
