Description
At sea., recently evacuated from Gallipoli these unidentified men are peeling potatoes for what the unknown photographer called "the famous bully beef stew". A small group of four at upper right are wearing what is probably the white over green diamond shaped colour patch of the 20th Battalion. The remainder are possibly men of the 5th Field Ambulance. Taken aboard an unknown vessel i6 they are probably on the way to Egypt from the island of Lemnos.
