Denis Gibbons (1937 – 2011)
Trained with the Australian Army, before travelling to Vietnam in January 1966, Denis stayed with the 1st Australian Task Force in Nui Dat working as a photographer. For almost five years Gibbons toured with nine Australian infantry battalions, posting compelling war images from within many combat zones before being flown out in late November 1970 after sustaining injuries. The images held within the National Vietnam Veterans Museum make up the Gibbons Collection.A black and white photograph of 2Lt Tom 'Rockets' Guivarra Mid, a fixed wing pilot with 161 (Indep) Recce Flt receives a mission brief from Bombadier Allan 'Bomber' Harris DFC, in the 161 (indep) Recce Flight prior to a mission in Phuoc Tuy Province, South Vietnam (circa Apr 1967)photograph, 2lt tom "rockets" guivarra, bombadier allan "bomber" harris, 161 recon flt, gibbons collection catalogue, phuoc tuy province, fixed wing pilot, 161 (indep) recce flt, denis gibbons
