Quân đội Đại-Hàn ngoài công tác chống cộng còn giúp đỡ và bảo vệ dân chúng, 1965 US poster: Four captioned photographs show

Quân đội Đại-Hàn ngoài công tác chống cộng còn giúp đỡ và bảo vệ dân chúng (Korean Troops Not Only Fight VC-They Help and Protect the People)

Four captioned photographs show soldiers of the South Korean White Horse Division transplanting rice with farmers, demonstrating a threshing machine, running a medical clinic and studying a map with the divisional commander. The headline says the Korean troops, besides fighting communism, help and protect the civilian population. Only the civil-assistance side of the deployment is shown, which is the card-stacking tell.
