Better than Colo-Putty
Description
Cartoon of two Australian soldiers having a conversation about their circumstances in Vietnam. One asks his friend "What d'ya reckon about this Vietnam business, mate?", the other replies "Anything's gotta be better than Colo-Putty" - referring to the camp in an area south of Singleton, NSW, where many soldiers trained prior to their deployment to Vietnam.
