Description
The field kitchen of an Australian unit in a quarry known as the 'Chalk Pit'. In the foreground are four moveable cookers. The fuel used was coal or charcoal so as to reduce smoke. Meals were carried to the front lines from these kitchens three times a day. On the left is the main track for communication with the front line before and during battle, with some men passing along it. On the right hand side in the wall of the quarry are several dugouts and other structures. Also see EZ0112
