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 Capt Shirley Southwell (RAANC) and her brother Capt Terry Southwell 5th Battalion Royal Australian Regiment, snatch a few moments together as they watch the sick being loaded aboard ambulances for RAAF medivac C130 medivac transport to Australiaphotograph, 1st australian field hospital, raanc, nurse, capt shirley southwell, capt terry southwell, 5 rar, raaf, medivac, c130 medivac flight, gibbons collection catalogue, vung tau
