Australian soldiers at officers’ school, New College, Oxford, 1917

When this photo was originally added to the site, we suspected that Stid was in it but had no proof. Now we know. There is a version of this photo that has the names listed and it turns out he is in the top left hand corner.  Details were found on this website:

====================

Original Post

This photo from the State Library of Queensland includes E.B Freeman who “attended the college from 6 February 1917 and qualified as an officer on 31 May 1917 and was appointed as a 2nd Lieutenant, posted to Infantry Reinforcements and proceeded to France in late June 1917.”

These dates and details match the dates that Stid was at Oxford so there is a good chance he is also in this photo.
