Description
An unidentified RAAF men from No 5 Airfield Construction Squadron (ACS) and a Vietnamese worker stand aside while gravel for the cement mixer is delivered by front end loader for the floor of the RAAF Bellman type hangar at Vung Tau, South Vietnam. The hangar itself, originally built in the Second World War, was a disused structure from an airfield at Parkes in central NSW. The hangar was dismantled and shipped to Vietnam to meet the needs of the expanding Australian contingent.
