Description: “The Hospital in the distance. In-patients ran up to 1000 and over.” Landscape view showing numerous tents pitched in the distance. Lt. Irvine was stationed at the carrier hospital at Dodoma in late 1917. ❧ The image is from an album chronicling the war time experiences of Archibald Clive Irvine (1893-1974) in German East Africa and Portuguese East Africa with the Royal Army Medical Corps. During this time he would meet Dr John W Arthur which in turn would lead to his missionary work at Chogoria in Kenya.
