Description

A Daimler truck travelling along a heavily flooded road. There is farmland on either side of the road and, what appears to be, telegraph poles on the left.

Whilst many scenes were deliberately taken as propaganda, some, like this, simply document the everyday experiences of war.

[Original reads: 'THE BRITISH ADVANCE IN THE WEST - On the road.'
