UN Emergency Force (UNEF) in Gaza
The United Nations Emergency Force (UNEF), since its creation during the winter of 1956, has maintained a constant vigil along the Armistice Demarcation Line and the International Frontier. The Reece Squadron Unit has been responsible for patrolling the Northern Sector of the International Frontier.
Trooper John Taylor of the RCD Recce Squadron is seen here as he compares a helmet worn by UNEF troops to a scarred and rusted British steel helmet which was found in the desert during mine-sweeping, and is believed to be a relic of the battles of Gaza of 45 years ago.
