Description

Korea, c. 1950-12. Field stoves and other kitchen equipment belonging to the cooks of the 3rd Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment (3RAR), stand on a cleared patch of ground in a landscape blanketed with snow. Among the equipment are a box of C-6 rations, a wooden crate, a jerry can, cylinders filled with petrol as fuel for the stoves, dixies, basins, a tarpaulin and some large tins, one of which bears the label 'Overseas Service Lard'. Some battalion members are standing and eating a meal in the snow at right.
