Description
“Going to DSM with Willie Campbell, James, and 6d worth of bananas at the door of our carriage. It was very noisy being all iron.” ❧ “ – months here, I was called [to]DSM to go to Portuguese East Africa. All photos relating to this occur [l]ater. On returning just before armistice, I was posted M. O. to -/3 KAR then in rest camp.” Group portrait of RAMC officers outside a train wagon with Lt. Irvine in the middle. ❧ 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.
