Three soldiers standing at the corner of a ruined building.

Three members of the 2nd Australian Division stand under the arches of the Bapaume town hall, which was relatively intact after shelling had reduced much of the town to rubble. Six nights later several men sleeping inside were killed when the building was destroyed by a delayed-action bomb that had been left behind by the retreating Germans. AWM E00393
