Description

Australian servicemen in Korea will be spending Christmas 6000 miles away from Australia's sunny beaches, in the sub zero temperatures of the Korean winter, but they're not forgetting the folks back home. Buying a few last minute presents in the gift shop of the 1st Battalion, The Royal Australian Regimetn (1RAR) is Corporal (Cpl) Peter Robson, of D Company. Cpl Robson is a United Kingdom enlistment, and his family lives at Brough, Yorkshire.
