Entertainment? Signed on back - see next photoSeems from something I found on the net that Ernest Burcher was a medic. My dad, Victor Samuel Cowen, was a medic in the Somme from 1914 and i'm guessing they must have known each other. Only just found this picture among many others having had my dad's stuff stored for years. Still piecing things together.
