Description
Nui Dat, South Vietnam. May 1971. Corporal Frank Brady of Perth, WA, operates a booby trap switch in the booby trap lane at the Jungle Warfare Training Centre (JWTC) at Nui Dat in Phuoc Tuy Province. Corporal Brady, a member of the Australian Army Training Team Vietnam (AATTV), and an instructor at the JWTC, is watched by two of the students on the Survival Course at the school. The booby trap is a typical Viet Cong device and students receive expert instruction on how to recognise and handle all types during their six week course at the school.
