    Studio portrait of 1787 Private Leslie Walter Westaway, 29th Battalion from Somerville, Victoria. A 22 year old grocer prior to enlistment on 12 July 1915, he embarked for overseas as an Acting Sergeant with the 2nd Reinforcements from Melbourne on 29 October 1915 aboard HMAT Demosthenes. He reverted to Private on reaching the Western Front and after being promoted and then reverting to his previous rank on several occasions, he was promoted to Corporal (Cpl) on 24 January 1917. Cpl Westaway died of erysipelas on 14 August 1917 at the 7th Canadian Stationary Hospital, France and is buried in the Longuenesse (St Omer) Souvenir Cemetery, Pas de Calais, France. This is one of a series of photographs taken by the Darge Photographic Company which had the concession to take photographs at the Broadmeadows and Seymour army camps during the First World War. In the 1930s, the Australian War Memorial purchased the original glass negatives from Algernon Darge, along with the photographers' notebooks. The notebooks contain brief details, usually a surname or unit name, for each negative. The names are transcribed as they appear in the notebooks.
