Picture No 10282729
Date 1916
Description East Surrey Regiment kick footballs
Details

Soldiers of the East Surrey regiment advance through heavy fire towards enemy lines, kicking footballs as they go. The footballs were provided as a means of encouraging the men to attack. Needless to say, the footballs made a lot more ground than many of the men.
