Description
Informal portrait of 420213 Flying Officer Arthur William Lehdey, 458 Squadron, doing his laundry under primitive conditions. He is using two petrol or water tins to wash and rinse uniform articles, and then laid them out to dry on the barbed wire behind him, presumably part of the airfield perimeter fence.
