ANZAC Day, Sydney, 1951

Anzac Day
Sydney, 1951

This day became the first time men of 3RAR, returned from Korea, marched together, mostly Bods still in uniform, either from R.G.H. Concord or from G.D.D. Marrackville. They put on a terrific show, as you can see, all in step and heads held high.

Note the triangle colour patches of the 27th Commonwealth Brigade 3x9 still worn by most of the troops.

 

Battle of the Broken Ridge, Oct 25-26th, 1950 - KUJIN

Battle of the Broken Ridge
Oct 25-26th, 1950
KUJIN


The battle of the broken bridge was another bit of excitement for the rifle companies. They managed to knock over a few tanks as they had their bazookas in good working order. They also did a good job clearing out a number of the enemy still in the area. It was a good situation to call in some air support, but the American Jet on call was too good/fast - the preferred strikes were by propeller-driven planes that were more accurate and could pin-point a target a lot better. There were quite a few casualties during this battle, and the enemy was attacking more strongly, the closer they got to the Yalu River. The enemy had quite a few tanks and plenty of troops who were now attacking with whistles and bugles blowing.
