'Red Cross Work in the Flanders Mud', First World War, 1 August 1917, (c1920). 'R.A.M.C. stretcher-bearers bringing in wounded during the advance on Passchendaele'. Royal Army Medical Corps personnel struggle in mud up to their knees to carry a wounded man to safety near Boezinge during the Battle of Pilckem Ridge. The appalling conditions on the Belgian Western Front were caused by heavy rain which created seas of thick mud. From "The Great World War: A History", Volume VII, edited by Frank A Mumby.
