There are photographs from multiple places in France including Etaples (France) (1915), Camiers (the No. 3 Canadian General Hospital) (1915). and Boulogne (1916-1917, including No. 7 Convalescent Camp), as well as Gass's postings in Clivedon, England (1918) and Rhyl, North Wales (1918). Many photographs depict "the lines" of the various camps, with tent and building exteriors and interiors, including living quarters, nurses' "huts" and hospital wards. There are also photographs of soldiers' entertainments, including shows and costumed performers.
