Interior of a YMCA hut in London

The interior of a YMCA hut in London, full to the brim with sleeping soldiers. Some of the lucky ones have beds, others have secured a chair while many sleep on the floor. Such huts were dotted around the capital and provided accommodation, food and recreational facilities for soldiers who found themselves in the capital on leave with nowhere to stay during the First World War
