Below please find a link to a photo of the 11th Fld Amb taken in Tunis in May 1943. I found this amongst my father's collection of WW2 stuff and thought it might be of interest to others researching the same campaign. 11th Fld Amb Tunis May 1943 | Flickr - Photo Sharing! I put the image onto Flickr because the original photograph is very small and needed to be scanned at high resolution. BTW I have tried to put the link directly into the "upload a file from a URL" but keep getting an "invalid file" response? At least the photo gives me a handle on the actual number (41 in the photo) of chaps in the 11th Fld Amb - I had no idea before. I thought it would have been much smaller somehow, don't know why really! I guess I imagined just a few brave souls darting out dodging muck and bullets to render help to the injured.
I have just put another photo on Flickr. Link: 11th Fld Amb Bournemouth 1940 | Flickr - Photo Sharing! This shows the same 11th Fld Amb unit but taken 3 years earlier in Bournemouth (1940), presumably at a training camp. Does anyone have any information about where that might have been exactly? I notice that there are 49 chaps in the photo here, so if you take away the 2 officers in the front, that leaves 47. Sadly there were only 41 in the photo taken at Tunis.
