Photo taken on the island of Bougainville during a separatist civil war. New Zealand and Australian military helicopters operated by the Peace Monitoring Group were painted international orange to distinguish them from the Papua New Guinea Defence Force's camouflaged UH-1s. The Wasp came from the HMNZS Canterbury. Sold in the UK as G-RIMM. The location is given as Bougainville but where on the island is not known.
