Description

The Fifth Wellington Regiment at Palmerston North Camp, May 1915, shown in front of the Grandstand at Awapuni Military Camp. Note the men in civilian attire in the back two rows - these may indicate a shortage in uniforms, something which did occur in the larger camps. The men just in front of them are wearing an unusual collarless jacket, but their belts indicate that they are military.
