Description
"Y.M.C.A. depot. Sometimes we could buy chocolate and/or dates here. We used to buy condensed milk (Nestles sweetened) at 2/6 a tin, from some of the Naval fellows at ANZAC, who had 'appropriated' it from landed stores." "Y.M.C.A hut at Rest Gully. On rare occasions nuts & raisins etc were for sale." [Photographer's notes on reverse of separate enlargements of this image]. From an album relating to the service of 1248 Sergeant Roberts, 18th Battalion, later Lieutenant Roberts, RFC.
