Image description

A troop doctor examines Swiss army members in a hospital room during the First World War 1914 - 1918. The real test of the troop sanity came with the epidemic of the Spanish flu. The number of victims was large, at the stage sanity centres, militaerspiele were ready to give the dead the last passage with Chopin's funeral march to the home cemeteries.
