“Group at the end of our marquee, Durban.” Group portrait of British officers gathered at the entrance to a marquee. Lt. A C Irvine sits in the centre with Lt. J. Jordan on his left both are with the Royal Army Medical Corps and are billeted in Durban on route to German East Africa. ❧ The image is from an album chronicling the war time experiences of Archibald Clive Irvine (1893-1974) in East Africa. During this time he would meet Dr John W Arthur which in turn would lead to his missionary work at Chogoria in Kenya.
