Description

A bogged convoy of AASC wagons near Birshola, in Egypt. While this wagon was moving out with supplies and ammunition to our troops who were attacking the Senussi tribesmen, west of Birshola, a heavy downpour of rain over night rendered the loamy soil very boggy; in consequence it was impossible to move more than five miles the following day.
