Description
An Ngai, South Vietnam, 1971. Australian troopers assembling an array of large truck tyres that when attached to an Armoured Personnel Carrier (APC) were used to detonate enemy landmines with hopefully minimal danger to the APC crew. This APC has been christened Her Majesties' Armoured Personnel Carrier (HMAPC) "George" and has "Bukoo Boom Boom" painted on its rear. Donor: I Kuring
