Description
Two soldiers sharing a cigarette in what appears to be a bombed Italian town. One wears the insignia of the Royal Engineers, the other appears to be from an Indian Army unit. The friendship captured in this moment between a British and Indian soldier is remarkable. Found in a collection of photographs from a deceased veteran in Leicester.
In Russian
