# Hãy nhớ lại người bạn cũ (Remember Your Former Comrade), leaflet ATF-022-70

Two-sided leaflet. One side is typed text on yellow asking the reader to remember a former comrade found alone with a serious foot wound, now recovering in hospital, and asking whether the reader could recover if seriously wounded. The other side is a faded photograph of a medic at a hospital bed dated 13 August 1970. The tell: a picture of care is used to pose the reader's own wounding as a question.

Both sides read from the AWM scans. The AWM identification strips ('AUSTRALIAN WAR MEMORIAL' and the accession number) at the foot of each scan are part of the scan and are omitted. The hosted image places the two sides of the leaflet one above the other (or side by side), joined by FRAME from AWM's two scans of the same object. Translation is FRAME's own literal rendering, machine-assisted and not verified by a fluent reader; AWM's English translation was consulted.
