Description
An unidentified soldier, standing on a fire step, using a periscope to see outside the trench he is standing in, on the ridge of Lone Pine. A kit bag and water bottle is on a ledge to his right, and his Enfield rifle is leaning against the trench in front of him. Note that you can see the image of No Man's Land in the viewer of the periscope.
