Scope and Content

Photo scrapbook in a brown leather bound scrapbook. The RMR's crest and tri colours are on the front of the cover. A sticky note taped to the front reads "WWII 32nd RECCE (ENGLAND)". There are 16 filled pages with photos, and about 10 empty pages. The photos are glued onto the thick cardstock-like paper and there are names, captions and drawings in black and blue ink. The scrapbook contains casual photos of RMR soldiers and officers while in the UK training. There are many solo photos of men doing housework, fixing vehicles, playing sports relaxing, training, etc. Most photos have captions with the date, place and soldier's name.
