Description
Group portrait outside the railway station of B Company, 4th Reinforcements 55th Battalion, which sailed from Sydney on 4 September 1916. Most of these men came from the Monaro area, from the Victorian border to Queanbeyan, thus the banner of the Union Jack flag into which is set the Australian flag above the words "The Men from Snowy River". The original recruitment march in January 1916 carried the same banner. (Donor Armstrong)
