Studio portrait of 3569 Acting Corporal (A/Cpl) William Joseph King. Originally from Monkstown, Cork, Ireland, Pte King was a clerk from Melbourne, Victoria prior to enlistment and embarked with the 8th Reinforcements, 22nd Battalion from Melbourne on HMAT Afric on 5 January 1916. Later transferring to the 57th Battalion he was promoted to Sergeant and invalided to England suffering from a hernia. He later served briefly with the 65th Battalion in England before re-joining the 57th Battalion. On 25 February 1918 he was killed in action and was buried in the La Plus Douve Farm Cemetery, Wallonie, Belgium. This is one of a series of photographs taken by the Darge Photographic Company which had a permit to take photographs at the Broadmeadows and Seymour army camps during the First World War. In the 1930s, the Australian War Memorial purchased the original glass negatives from Algernon Darge, along with the photographers' notebooks. The notebooks contain brief details, usually a surname or unit name, for each negative. See also DA11866.
