WW2 Egypt Sgt Jock Smith and comrades
« on: Saturday 17 February 24 21:55 GMT (UK) »
Would very much like to see restoration/ interpretation of this photo of a group of cheery looking lads in Egypt during WW2. My uncle Jock Smith is on the far right with his hands together looking unusually pensive.
