A U.S. Army doctor and his wounded patients are the subject of this negative, which the Bain News Service titled simply as a doctor with the wounded in France. The record gives no date, and the title comes from caption cards that the agency's own data did not verify, so the exact scene and year remain uncertain. The likely context is the American Expeditionary Forces in France during World War I, when Army medical units set up aid stations and field hospitals close to the front. Bain's New York agency distributed news pictures like this one to newspapers and magazines, which is why such images show up in the collection.
