Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This photograph, by an unknown photographer, shows a group of soldiers sitting on a bank having a hot drink after coming out of the trenches. They are muddy and exhausted. The visible lack of reaction to the photographer perhaps reflects how irrelevent photographs must have seemed when the white crosses in the background were a mute reminder of death.

Even in the best conditions it was difficult to get food supplies to the men manning the trenches. The food they did get was rarely even warm, so a hot drink must have been welcome.
[Original reads: 'A cup of something hot for officers and men on their way out from the trenches.']
