Medical Officers in Etretat 1915/16

This photograph shows - we think - Medical Staff and perhaps other officers in Etretat in 1915 or 1916.  A number of the names are those of people whom Edie mentions in her diary.

We are uncertain of the location but it may be outside the Officers Mess - Villa Le Maupas.

Some of the names are clear to read but others are uncertain.  Here's what we think they are:

R F Scott (or R J Scott)

See the names index for dates on which she is mentioned in Edie's diaries. The names in bold above tally with names mentioned by Edie.

The photograph was kindly supplied by one of the great nieces of Edie's good friend and colleague, Kate Maxey.  See here page here.
