Abstract:
Black and white photograph featuring a group of nurses in Red Cross uniforms posing for the camera in two rows. Five nurses are seated in the front row and six are standing in the second row, with three men in white coats, one on each end and one in the center. In front of the seated nurses are three buckets, the largest one on the left-hand side and two smaller ones on the right-hand side. A hose is stretched between the large bucket and one of the small ones. The man standing on the left-hand side is holding a pump immersed in the large bucket.
