ICTORIAL PARADE for June presents the story of New Zealanders in Korea, and it opens at sea, with closeup pictures of the crew of H.MS. Hawea shelling shore-targets in support of United Nations troops. Ashore, a disastrous fire at Pusan is seen, and U.N. relief agencies are photographed at work on their immense task of attempting to house and feed 4,000,000 victims of war. At the front, gunners of the 16th Field Regiment are seen in action on Hills 355 and 210, and men of the 28th Field Engineer Regiment, L.A.D., at work maintaining guns and equipment for the front-line troops. In Tokyo we follow gunners from "Peter" Battery on leave. ° Not only do we see general shots of the Japanese background, but also picturesque interiors in a Meiji shrine. Returning by Meteors of the R.A.A.F. to the battlefield, we find the Kiwi troops once more in action. The film ends with salvos from 25-pounders, and with the troops in their "heochis" well dug in.
