A treasure trove of Great War photos lost in French barn for nearly 100 years
For nearly a century a unique piece of Australian history has lain hidden in an attic in a disused French barn.
Now Australia's Ch7 programme has tracked down the cache of 3000 glass plate photographic negatives — featuring Australia’s first soldiers on the Western Front.
Many of the poignant pictures are the last, or only, images of the men before they died.
If you think you know a soldier in these pictures CH 7 would love to hear from you, either via their website or email Ch 7 Sunday Night.
