    Nice photo

    Probably not many opportunities for the GIs to bathe during WW2.

    A picture of your gun is worth 1,000 words. A crappy picture is only worth 100.

        ..and I hope your sling is on correctly like his!

        We know it's not a G.I. Now the question...is that Tommy Adkins or one of the ANZACs?

          The only caption I could find for this photo was:

          "A British soldier (or Tommy Atkins) takes advantage of the opportunity to have a bath in Tobruk, Libya, 1942."
