Description: Naval telegraphists Crooke, Sherry, Rose and Winch, of an FOB unit (Forward Observation Bombardment) with Captain J F Burgess, RA, moving forward to an observation post in the Sword area. The gun crews of the Royal Navy rely on them for correct ranges as they bombard enemy strong-points and gun-nests ashore. Note two of the men carrying a spool of telephone wire in the foreground.
