Description
A trench block, showing debris probably after a bombing, mess tins are (right) behind a sand bag. The success of the battle at Stormy Trench was largely due to the leadership of Lieutenant Colonel (then Captain) Henry William Murray, VC, CMG, DCM, DSO and Bar, 13th Battalion, for which he won the VC.
