Korean soldier in cloth mask

Description
-
A closeup of a Korean soldier wearing a cloth mask. Similar homemade masks were sometimes used by Vietnamese protestors and Viet Cong supporters to obscure their identity, so that if anyone was captured they would not be able to identify the rest of the group. This mask may have been used for a similar purpose.
