Description

Kurdistan. 1919. Four members of `D' Troop, 1st Wireless Signal Squadron, Mesopotamian Expeditionary Force, share a plate of round Indian bread chapatis offered to them by an Indian soldier in the outdoors. The original caption reads: `Chupatties made by our Indian drivers were always more acceptable than those less dexterously made by ourselves, and proved a welcome change from biscuits'. (Donor H. Dale)
