DescriptionCartoon by Hutton Mitchell. The woman in this cartoon is visiting a wounded man in hospital whose face is completely bandaged up. The caption reads: 'Unnecessary Old Idiot: "NOW, where HAVE I SEEN YOUR FACE BEFORE?" This is possibly a reference to do-gooders who could never really understand what the men had been through.
