DescriptionThere are always problems to be discussed with the camp commander. Here, under a portrait of marshal Tito, Mr Soeren Christensen, the ICEM officer at Gerovo, [Yugoslavia] has his regular morning talk with the camp commander. The morning's problem: how to transport 100 candidates for New Zealand out of Gerovo to the railroad station, an hour's ride away by truck, if bad weather turns the roads into muddy lanes.
