The image, taken between 1915 and 1918 by Professor (then Colonel) A. M. Connell, showcases a group of military personnel patiently waiting for their passes. The scene is filled with anticipation and camaraderie as these brave men await permission to venture beyond the hospital's confines. Their uniforms bear witness to their dedication and sacrifice in service to their country. With weary expressions etched on some faces and hopeful smiles on others, this photograph encapsulates the range of emotions experienced by those who served during this tumultuous period.
