SP116
King & Country
Using a trio of soil-filled, 50 gallon oil drums as a base topped by a few sandbags a length a steel pole supports the national flag of Australia.
Flown since the beginning of the 20th Century, the flag consists of the British Blue Ensign joined by a large seven-pointed ‘Commonwealth Star’ and five smaller stars representing the constellation of the Southern Cross.
From the biggest firebase to the loneliest outpost all across Vietnam it was important to show your ‘colors’... both to announce your presence and... to annoy the enemy!
