Description
An unidentified Australian officer saluting the official dais (left) as he leads a march past of troops during a parade for The Prime minister of Australia (PM), the Right Honourable Robert G. Menzies. The PM was on a tour of BCOF units and bases in Japan shortly after the start of the Korean War. The men were probably members of the 3rd Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment (3RAR).
