Group in medical service

This is a photo taken in the Russian city of Nowgorod in 1916 during WWI. It is a picture of the personnel of the Russian medical corps train # 202. The doctor and the Red Cross nurses, except for one Mennonite, were Russian. The orderlies were mainly Mennonite and Russian. Of the approximately 50 people, 7 are women. The subjects are arranged in 5 rows with the first row posing in the typical Russian style of men partially lying on their sides. All the men wear military style uniforms. Some of the men wear Persian lamb hats while others wear military caps. Several of the women wear nursing uniforms. The group poses in front of the wall of a building. In the center of the wall is a crest and under it are the letter C and the number 3. In the upper right hand corner there is a tear in the wall, quite possibly the result of the original photo having been torn.
