Shovels in hand, members of the 22nd Battalion set to work repairing their muddy trench. Filling sandbags and repairing duckboards, the wooden slats beneath their feet, kept soldiers busy during the day. From the vegetation and the wide trench walls, this photograph is likely of a trench further to the rear.
