Description

An unidentified patient is served a light lunch of soup and bread by a male nurse or orderly, probably in the British Commonwealth General Hospital at Kure, Japan. The serviceman is probably recovering from injury or illness after having been evacuated from the Korean War. The nurse or orderly has ‘130KW THEATRE’ printed near the neck of his white gown.
