Description
Korea, c. 1950-10. Two members of the Machine Gun Platoon, 3rd Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment (3RAR), sit in their dugout which overlooks a road running through paddy fields. The front wall of the dugout is protected by sandbags, with a .303 Vickers medium machine gun pointing out over them towards the road in the background. An Owen submachine gun is leaning against a small tree or bush at left. The soldier at right has a cigarette in his hand. (Donor I. Robertson)
