An informal portrait of 219689 Lieutenant Colonel (Lt Col) Damien Healy standing in front of a Mixed Military Working Group (MMWG) briefing map which displays the legend 'Peace For Cambodia' and shows the location of United Nations Transitional Authority in Cambodia (UNTAC)s military contingents. The MMWG had been formed by the United Nations Advance Mission in Cambodia (UNAMIC) with the intention of providing a high-level forum for all four Cambodian military factions and the UN's military representatives, and first met on 28 December 1991. It continued under the United Nations Transitional Authority in Cambodia (UNTAC). An experienced military negotiator, Lt Col Healy was MMWG's Chief Liaison Officer and the only Australian representative. He received a Conspicuous Service Cross for his work in Cambodia.

A posed photograph of de Havilland DH 5 Scout plane (Serial A 9242) of 68 Squadron, Royal Flying Corps (renumbered as No 2 Squadron, Australian Flying Corps from 19 January 1918) at an aerodrome in Lincolnshire, England, with 24 year old Cootamundra born Lieutenant Sydney Winton Ayers in the cockpit. Ayers was later shot down on 22 November 1917 over Bourlou Wood while ground strafing German troops and positions in support of the tank-assisted Cambrai attack - he died of his wounds two days later. The same month this image was taken, Ayers' brother, Private Charles Thomas Ayers of 58 Battalion, was killed at Polygon Wood. The legend painted down the right side of the DH5 scout indicates it was a presentation aircraft, paid for by subscriptions and fund-raising in Australia. This particular aircraft, 'New South Wales no 14' (also known as The Women's Battleplane) was presented on 12 April 1917 to 68 Squadron by 'the women of New South Wales and others', who raised 2,700 pounds. Notable amongst the subscribers were the Tweed and Armidale Battleplane Funds. Generally disliked by pilots for its lack of performance, vibration, and tendency to shed valves, the DH5 was being replaced by the SE5a by the end of 1917. See also A02177.

POK's crew taken in December 1943. This photo believed to have been contributed by George Litchfield's family. George LITCHFIELD (bomb aimer) front centre. L-R Believed to be SCOTT (W/Op), BOETTCHER (rear gunner), PATKIN (pilot), CHAMBERS (Flight engineer), (Navigator) . Absent is FSGT BLACKWELL the mid upper gunner The aircraft behind them is not the one in which they were lost on 1/2 January ('PO-K'). It is 'PO-M' a unit workhorse as evidenced by the 53 missions it had flown at this time (presumed to be late 1943). 'PO-M' features in two other images; AWM UK0463.jpg which 'captured' the aircraft at an earlier point in its career, on 31 August 1943 when it had completed 40 missions and had its designation changed from 'PO-U' to 'PO-M'. Another image on the 467 Squadron page features this aircraft at the same time - 31 August 1943 with its crew.
