Description
Before taking off on a reconnaissance flight over known Viet Cong (VC) areas, RAAF and Australian Army men talk over the tactics they will use to try and catch the enemy in the open or spot the tracks left by the oxen carts the VC use to re-supply their forces in the jungle. The only weapon used in this operation is a powerful pair of field glasses. RAAF Iroquois helicopter A2-1025 is behind the group.
