AbstractHistoryArchive Description

A Digger from Brisbane is in conversation with a German soldier across the wastes of No Man's Land. It transpires that the German spent time in Brisbane before the war, and had an affair with a married woman whom he wishes to contact again. The Aussie soldier is unimpressed when he reads his own address on the note tossed across.
