Description:The Sergeant looks rather strict as he supervises the Army Service Corps Field Bakery Ovens which are on the left of the photograph; the individual chimneys of the ovens are out of shot. All the bread produced besides being fed to the troops on Camp would have been invaluable training for the troops. This area was across the road from Womere, the ancient water feature between Old Acre and Sherbrook Valleys.
