Description
Korea. February 1953. Members of the 3rd Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment (3RAR), are interested in the workings of an American recoilless rifle which was brought in with an American unit's equipment. The members of 3RAR were waiting to move out to make room for their fellow infantrymen from the USA. Here they are shown in a forward post studying the finer points of the weapon.
