NZ soldiers showing off captured field guns in London

NZ soldiers showing off captured field guns in London

Guns captured by the New Zealand Expeditionary Force on display in London. Probably taken at the time of the Lord Mayor's Show just before the armistice that ended the First World War on 11 November 1918. Australian, British and American soldiers pose with the New Zealanders. The sign reads 'Field guns captured by the New Zealand Expeditionary Force.'
