The pictures show, clockwise from left top: a rifleman watching the hillsides for “enemy” movement; back at headquarters troop movements being marked on a map; a soldier with field kit waiting for the order to move-out; a helicopter sweeping over the “battle-field” at twilight; an almost invisible rifleman squatting in a foxhole; a medic caring for one of the numerous minor injuries; and a signal man on the “air” during lunch. Press, 20 February 1979, Page 26
