Description

The United Nations Platoon of the 8th Army Honor (Honour) Guard at Seoul, achieves a very high standard of smartness in drill and turn out, despite the varied dress and drill movements of the men of many nations serving in it. Here, preparatory to parade three members put finishing touches to their gear. They are, left to right: Rifleman Dale Cainey of the Queen's own Rifles of Canada; Private Ken Haupt of Footscray, Vic, and Corporal Louis Talifre of Belgium.
