Views of Sidney military camp

Photograph depicts two views of Sidney Military Camp. The pictures feature canvas tents used as lodgings for Other Ranks. In the bottom picture, a flag with a maple leaf and the numbers "231" is waving in the wind. This likely means the area pictured was the section where the 231st Battalion was staying during their summer field training in 1916.
