Description
A trading post tent on 1 Ordnance Field Park (1OFP) lines at the 1st Australian Task Force (1ATF) Base at Nui Dat, with coloured sandbags piled out the front. Two alternative signs posted outside the tent indicate the social and political climate of the camp, including a sign reading 'Dat come, disc go', and a peace sign. The colours and signs were symbols of the 60's and a reminder of life back in Australia.
