Postcard featuring a color illustration of a wounded soldier holding the arms of two nurses. The wounded soldier is dressed in a military hat and uniform, including three medals on his chest. He is wearing only one boot, and his other foot is wrapped in bandages. His head is also bandaged. The nurses, who are standing on either side of him, are dressed in white with red cloaks. They both have a red cross on their foreheads and arms, and one has a red cross on her apron bib. One nurse is holding some flowers in one hand and resting her other hand on her hip. The other nurse is holding her two hands together.
