The DEOVR Camp at Fraserburg Road. The Duke of Edunburgh's Own Volunteer Rifles have been engaged in many a battle notably in Basutoland. On the outbreak of hostilities they were called out and were subsequently detached in different companies along the railway to guard the lines of communication. Their spare time has been filled up by arranging a clever device shown in the foreground composed of whitewashed stones.
