CHINESE ENTERTAINING ALLIED TROOPS [Main]
A stage has been set up in a field near the town, and men of the Corps perform an acrobatic and dancing show in costume for an audience of soldiers of various nationalities, predominantly British, and some civilians. The Corps has a percussion band of drums and cymbals. Stilt walkers demonstrate a kind of dance and men forming Chinese dragons join in a procession.
