Description	English: Armed with a Thompson sub-machine gun, helmeted sailor John O'Neill stands on the focsle of the Daring class destroyer HMAS Duchess anchored off South Vietnam. He is on alert against enemy underwater sappers or other attacks. As a safety precaution, the magazine has been removed from the weapon, and will only be fitted in the event of a confirmed threat. The Duchess is escorting the troop transport HMAS Sydney carrying soldiers and cargo to Vietnam. This is a side trip for HMAS Duchess during its deployment to the Indonesian Confrontation.
