Description
A group of representatives, including one woman, from the Australian Force Communications Unit (FCU) march at the head of a parade of athletes competing at the first ever UN Olympic games, an event held in Phnom Penh's 1963 Olympic Stadium on 17 January 1993. They are followed by the representatives from the Bangladeshi contingent which contributed 942 personnel to the United Nations Transitional Authority in Cambodia (UNTAC) operation. Organised by the Australian contingent, the games drew 600 participants from 18 countries.
