Summary[edit]
| Description |
Nurses with the hospital pet. This image shows a group of nurses posing for the camera with the hospital pet, a little dog. They appear to be standing on a balcony. The nurse in the middle is wearing an armband with the insignia of 'THE S. JOHN AMBULANCE BRIGADE HOSPITAL.' The woman on the far left has the same insignia on her belt buckle. Their uniforms are all in pristine condition, and they all look happy and relaxed. According to the photograph's original caption they are waiting to meet Queen Mary. During World War I, many hospitals and medical services were set up at the Front and at home. The Red Cross and the St John Ambulance Brigade worked closely to provide treatment and care for those wounded in the war. [Original reads: '...ON THE BRITISH WESTERN FRONT. THE VISIT OF HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN. - WITH BILLY THE HOSPITAL PET WAITING TO SEE THE QUEEN.'] digital.nls.uk/74546712 |
