Postcard - photographic, Egyptian Canal near Nouza Gardens

Historical information

The postcard was sent by Harry Holmes who was a member of the Australian Imperial Force based in Egypt at the time.


Egypt was a major base for the AIF from December 1914. A number of campaigns were fought in this theatre. There were two campaigns involving the AIF. Note that not all the fighting was actually geographically in Egypt. (http://www.aif.adfa.edu.au:8888/about3.html)
