Description

An unidentified patient, lying in his bed, looks at photographs with a British nursing sister, probably in the British Commonwealth General Hospital at Kure, Japan. The serviceman is preparing to write a letter, and has a stationery folder containing pens and paper resting in his lap. He is probably recovering from injury or illness after having been evacuated from the Korean War.
