Description
Sea of Japan, 1950-09-28. Two members of the 3rd Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment (3RAR), share a joke as they lean on the barrel of a 17-pounder anti-tank gun which is standing on the deck of the United States troopship Aiken Victory. The soldier (right) is Private 'Shufti' Fraser of C Company. The ship is transporting the battalion from Kure in Japan to Pusan and the war in Korea. (Donor I. Robertson)
