Meanwhile, elsewhere in France…
Here is another photograph from the Somme sector, again of the area around Mametz, and again the product of 205 Sqn.
This is similar to but not quite the same as the field of the previous photograph taken on 30 June 1918:
Not a great deal has changed between the 30 June 1918 and 16 July 1918 photos. But in the 16 July photo, in the woods towards the bottom of the field of view as well as in the scoop out of the woods, there seem to be dark crosses, each on a light circular background. Red crosses indicating hospitals or field dressing stations, possibly?
As before, it isn’t clear how this photograph came to be in Greg’s collection.
