Description
Informal group portrait of unidentified convalescent soldiers beside a decorated garden bed. The design incorporates stones outlining crossed Australian and New Zealand flags in the centre, along with the patriotic words "Aus NZ ANZAC Empire All". 1277 Lance Corporal (LCpl) Anton Hermann (Tony) Iversen, 4th Battalion, is possibly amongst this group. LCpl Iversen was a seaman of Sydney, NSW (originally of Copenhagen, Denmark); he enlisted in November 1914. He served on Gallipoli then transferred to the Army Ordnance Corps following a bout of influenza. He then went on to serve in this corps in England. LCpl Iversen returned to Australia on 23 October 1918.
