Description: Photographs chiefly taken by Leslie Bowden Quartermain during his time in the New Zealand Medical Corps, World War I. Most of the men photographed are named only with Christian names, surnames or nicknames. The first sequence shows various military camps, including the training depot set up at the Awapuni Racecourse for the Medical Corps. There they were trained in specialist medical work, and also in basic infantry training and discipline. The following sequences were taken en route to Europe, with stops at Fremantle, Durban, Cape Town, and Dakar. The arrival in England gives views in Wiltshire and Oxfordshire where the men were quartered before travelling to France. Two show the village of Lewknor, the ancestral home of the Quartermain family; and several show the royal review of Australian and New Zealand troops on Salisbury Plain. Other views were taken on leave from France; and with the army of occupation in Cologne, before the voyage home on the ship Kia Ora, through the Panama Canal. The final photograph is a group portrait with Leslie Bowden Quartermain in military uniform seated in the middle of a large group, probably Quartermain family, taken in 1919.
