Description

Korea, c. 1950-12. Two members of the 3rd Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment (3RAR), carry a wounded soldier from the Republic of Korea (ROK) Army along a snow-covered track towards a medical aid post (not in view). The injured man, his face reflecting the pain he is suffering, has a bandage or tourniquet tied around his right leg above the knee. A thick blanket of winter snow lies over the landscape and, in the background, a village stands in front of a range of hills.
