Description

Phnom Penh: Cambodia's duskily beautiful women have shrugged off tradition, but not their long black hair, glittering ear rings and owl sunglasses, to join their men on the battlefield. Shown are female volunteers in the Cambodian army being issued World War II vintage French and American weapons at their barracks outside Phnom Penh, recently.
