Wounded VC
'Doc' Roberton RMO (Regimental Medical Officer) of 5RAR and a medic
is seen attending to a wounded VC outside the village during the
Battle of Binh Ba.
He had been brought to them in an APC and once they had stabilised
his wounds, he was evacuated to the Vietnamese Hospital in Vung Tau
by helicopter.
Given the competence of the medics and the efficiency of the
helicopter evacuation, it was unusual for the RMO to be deployed in
this manner.
