King and Queen of England inspect Red Cross activities at the American hospital, Dartford, near London. The king couldn't wait until he got inside a ward to talk with the wounded. On his way to the first of the wards he notices a row of wounded cots out doors, whom the Brooklyn nurses had brought out so that they might enjoy the warm autumn sunshine. The King led the Queen and the Princess Mary over among these. The Queen showed much interest in the nurses as well as the wounded men and asked them many questions about their work. The photograph shows the King talking with Colonel E.H. Fiske of Brooklyn, commander of the hospital. Princess Mary is visible just behind the Queen, and near her the Chief Nurse, Miss Annie Mack of Brooklyn
