Fair dealing rationale

As noted in the photo's official caption on the AWM's photo database, this photo has "achieved almost the status of an icon". The 2006 Australian War Memorial publication 'Contact' (ISBN 0975190466 ) states that the photo "has become one of the cornerstone images in the Australian memory in the Vietnam War" (page 203). As a result, this photo is of very considerable historical importance and is important to illustrating articles on Australia's involvement in the Vietnam War.
