British military operations in Palestine during World War I

Palestinian workers loading bulk supplies onto British Army trucks, lined up, bumper to bumper, in the desert, during World War 1. A supervising British officer is seen briefly. Similarly, Palestinians loading British Army supplies into horse-drawn carts, at a British military encampment in the desert. As loaded carts begin to drive away, Stacked sandbags and tents can be seen in the background. A Brtish soldier appears briefly as carts leave. Next, a British soldier poses with his camel. He demonstrates how docile the animal is, by placing his arm into camel’s mouth. Palestinians are nest seen with camels at a watering hole, before they begin travel. Then, British Army soldiers are seen astride camels as they make their way in a column across the desert. A column of British Army Vauxhall 25hp motorcars moves along a desert road, of sorts, between rock outcroppings. (Preceding Slate states,” it takes a lot of gas to haul water for the men.”)
