Description
Three unidentified Australian soldiers herding sheep along a road near Montigny, France. Livestock of all descriptions, which had been abandoned by villagers during the German onslaught, was whenever possible taken over by the French Mission. The animals were collected and driven to safety in the rear of the lines. Note two unidentified officers in an open topped motor car (far left).
