This is an armored M113 personnel carrier of a type modified for the Vietnam War, in this case by Australia, where the M113 first saw combat service. In Vietnam, they were often up armored to take into account their vulnerability. The addition of the turret and cannon provides such an example with a Saladin armored car turret and 75mm gun.
Ostensibly exploring the practice of law before the internet. Heck, before good highways for that matter.
