AWM description: "Studio portrait of 2903 Private (Pte) William Fisher, 29th Battalion. A labourer from Oakleigh, Victoria prior to enlistment, Pte Fisher embarked with the 6th Reinforcements from Melbourne on HMAT Euripides on 4 April 1916. Later wounded in action he was evacuated to England. Following his recovery he rejoined his unit and later transferred to the 32nd Battalion. He returned to Australia on 8 May 1919."
