| Description | This photograph is believed to have been taken by the war photographer John Warwick Brooke. A group of men have been positioned, some standing and some lying, in a semi-circle. There is an array of various canes, hats and moustaches to be seen. They are in what appears to be a pleasant rural setting. The Newfoundland Regiment was a volunteer regiment which was set up to declare support for the Commonwealth's decision to declare war on Germany. It had a very successful World War I career. [Original reads: 'BRITISH OFFICIAL PHOTOGRAPHS FROM THE WESTERN FRONT. The Officers, Newfoundland Regiment.'] |
