Description
An informal group portrait of unidentified members of the Australian Graves Detachment gathered in front of two large tents which housed the Australian YMCA. The club was managed by Miss Ettie Rout, an Australian born, New Zealand bred, venereal disease campaigner who in 1915 formed the New Zealand Volunteer Sisterhood. During the war she also ran several soldier's clubs in Egypt, England and France. In 1919 and 1920 she ran a Red Cross depot in Villers-Bretonneux and was awarded a French decoration for this work.
