Description
Studio portrait of 1327 Corporal (Cpl) James Cameron, 2nd Reinforcements, 1st Battalion, of Uralla, New England, NSW. Pte Cameron enlisted on 1 October 1914 and embarked from Melbourne aboard HMAT Themistocles on 22 December 1914. He died of wounds on 6 September 1915, aged 29 years. This lantern slide is one of a series of images of soldiers from the district who enlisted and served overseas. The slides were probably displayed at the Tamworth Cinema between features. Some of the slides have been annotated with information about the person pictured.
