Description
Informal outdoor portrait of Corporal Julie Baranowski, a female member of the Military Police serving with the Australian contingent to the Unified Task Force in Somalia (UNITAF), in a jeep during a street patrol. She was in demand as the Somali men used to give their weapons to women to hide under their clothes in the hope of avoiding searches by male soldiers.
