Soldat Homer Cress Thomson
Homer Cress Thomson is in the front row, kneeling, on on the right (as the viewer sees it). The photograph is a post card. It hasn't been addressed or stamped. On the back is written: "Homer Thomson uncle during 1914-18 war".
The photo of the soldiers is taken in front of a wall and you can make out, very faintly, some words written on the wall, just above the head of the soldier on the left rear. It may say "Vittley Camp" or "Witley Camp". This is the same camp noted on the other picture of Homer I sent this week.

England by the Campbell studio, 71 Princess Street. On the back it reads: "#3131355 Pte Homer C. Thomson "D" Co. 4th Reserve Batt., Vitley Camp, England. cfo Army Post Office, London, England."
Homer is my great uncle on my mother's side and I submit this photo on Remembrance Day, 2008 in his honour.
