Description
A British Centurion tank, belonging to a Royal Tank Regiment, moves down a hillside in Korea. Two of the crew are watching the surrounding area from the turret, while the driver can be seen at the front left of the tank, below the gun barrel. The tank's gun barrel has a protective cover over the end. Note the five pointed stars on the front and side of the Centurion. The star is the common recognition symbol of United Nations (UN) forces in Korea.
