Description

Informal group portrait of three soldiers returning to Fremantle, Australia aboard HMAT Port Darwin. Soldiers are identified as 1202 Sergeant James Garfield Adams (right) and 1260 Warrant Officer (WO) Roy Rowe (left) of the 2nd Australian Stationary Hospital unit, and unidentified 'Fred F' (middle). Caption, written by WO Rowe, reads 'Ready to land at Fremantle 14/12/18, (J. G. A, Fred F, and R.R.), Transport Port Darwin'. The soldiers are dressed in uniform and are standing near a ladder, with a group of soldiers in the background leaning against the deck railing of the ship.
