Description
Port Moresby, Papua. 1942. Washing day for Sergeant F. G. Cassidy, a navigator of No. 30 Squadron RAAF. Sgt Cassidy's tent was typical of accommodation available to members of the Squadron at Ward's Strip. Note the Thompson sub-machine gun leaning against the stretcher, a contrast to the domestic chore of washing clothes in a bucket. (Donor F. Cassidy)
