<p>Photograph showing a Royal Naval World War I Hospital carrier courier (?), North Russian Expeditionary Force, May 1918 to October 1919. The North Russian Expeditionary Force were sent to Marmansk in Russia to prevent the further transfer of German troops to the western frontier following the German and Russian peace agreement March 1918. Hospital couriers were smaller than hospital barges and possibly were used to 'courier' the wounded between clearing stations.
