Description

Two unidentified soldiers, probably Australian, standing amidst the remains of a prisoner of war cage. At the time the German lines were located beyond Marett Wood, having been definitely checked in their advance towards Amiens. On the right a sign identifies the area as 'No 11 Pris of War Coy - Left = half'. The two signs on the far left read '46 Labour Group' and 'Defense d' entree (no entry) - Out of bounds to all ranks'.
