Thumbnail image: Medical station at Sidi N'sir

Description

This apparently derelict farmhouse has been turned into a medical station, with a large Red Cross flag on the roof to dissuade air attack. The photographer wrote the name Beja on the back, but a study of the landscape reveals that we're at Sidi N'sir; the station's radio mast is visible, so we are on the high ground across the road from the station. This photograph was taken by a Tiger crewman and therefore it was taken during Operation Ochsenkopf, whose goal was Beja. The casualties of the Sidi N'sir battle may have been treated in this building.

The photo research was largely the work of the old TIIF.DE team.
