Summary

Description
English: Photograph by Melbourne photographer Josiah E. Barnes of his son, Victor Earl Barnes dressed in his army uniform. Victor Barnes stands wearing a slouch hat and holding a baton with both hands behind his back. The reverse of the image is printed as a postcard and along the left side is the printed text `J.E. Barnes, Photo, Kew. Phone 1966 Hawthorn'. Beneath this is a handwritten inscription reading: `Victor Earl Barnes 1915'.

Victor Earl Barnes embarked on HMAT NESTOR on 11 October 1915 for service with the 14th Infantry Battalion. Victor Barnes transferred to the 46th Battalion in March 1916, and was injured while serving with this unit in France in June 1917. While recovering at the 11th Casualty Clearing Station, the site was bombed and Barnes received further injuries. Like his younger brother Norman Clarence Barnes, Victor survived the war and returned to Australia in July 1919.
