(88 Signal Regiment related photo): Ceasefire Line discussions and sipping on some lemonade; with UNMO Captain Andrew MacInnis, Australian Army. The Iranian Officer with the fixed stare was shot and wounded three times during the Iran/Iraq conflict. I did ask the interpreter permission to take this photo but by the look, I’m not so certain I got the nod. None the less, great photo using one of those disposable cameras. The Ceasefire Line in some areas was 80 km inside the Iranian internationally recognized boundaries and in other areas the Iranians were inside the Iraqi boundaries that changed a number of times throughout the 8 years of war.
