Long hours of tending to the medical needs of this wounded Australian digger await RAAF nursing officer, N61450 Nurse Jane Elizabeth Passmore, of Hobart, Tas, as she checks his condition on board an RAAF Hercules transport aircraft en route to Australia from South Vietnam. Section Officer (Sect Off) Passmore was making her fourth aero medical flight by Hercules from Vietnam to Australia. Since it was announced in July 1965 that the aero medical evacuation of Australian Army casualties from South Vietnam to Australia would be a RAAF responsibility, RAAF nursing officers like Sect Off Passmore have flown many thousands of miles.
