The Ship's Orchestra

A group photograph of the ship's orchestra taken in July 1916. Captain H. K. Stephens RMA is seated third from left in the second row. The presence of the sailor with the drum in the first row suggests this is an informal music group. The photograph was taken on the starboard side of the upper deck abreast 'X' turret mounting.
