Lieutenant Alfred Shout MC, 1st Battalion, AIF, photographed by Australia's official war correspondent Charles Bean on 7 June 1915. Shout is standing in the communications trench between Courtney's Post and Quinn's Post on the ridge line at Anzac. In the middle of the trench was a concealed entrance through which scouts went out into no-man's-land. Shout, one of the scouts, is standing at that entrance. Shout, who had distinguished himself during the days of the Battle of Landing, 25 April-3 May, and been awarded the Military Cross, was promoted Captain shortly before he went into action with the 1st Battalion during the Battle of Lone Pine, 6-9 August 1915.
