“My boys at Bathing Parade.” Landscape view looking down a beach at a group of men running into the water. The men are orderlies with the African Native Medical Corps (ANMC) based at the depot at Dar es Salaam where Lt. Irvine was based in early 1918. ❧ The image is from an album chronicling the war time experiences of Archibald Clive Irvine (1893-1974) in German East Africa and Portuguese East Africa with the Royal Army Medical Corps. During this time he would meet Dr John W Arthur which in turn would lead to his missionary work at Chogoria in Kenya.
