Photograph collection relating to 5561 Second Lieutenant Roy Lytton Cummings, No. 5 Training Squadron, Australian Flying Corps
66 photographs relating to the service of 5561 Second Lieutenant Roy Lytton Cummings. The images cover a wide range of topics including travel via ship, tourism, group photography and military life. There is a large collection of informal and formal group photographs, but they are mostly uncaptioned. Of interest is a camp cleaning, a bike side-car ruined by a camel sitting on it, bayonet practice and a large formal group photo of RFC and AFC members.
These images are part of a larger collection relating to the service of the Cumming brothers: 5561 Second Lieutenant Roy Lytton Cummings, No. 5 Training Squadron, Australian Flying Corps; 1026 Second Lieutenant Eric Douglas Cummings DFC, No. 2 Squadron, Australian Flying Corps; and the First and Second World war service of 131/1457/N272662 Second Lieutenant Mervyn Harold 'Laddie' (or 'Lad') Cummings MM, No. 5 Training Squadron, Australian Flying Corps.
