Private Grunelle, a member of the 102nd Field Signal Battalion, is seen laying wires from Major General John F. O'Ryan's dugout. The dugout, located in St. Laurant, France, is divided into two rooms - one for General O'Ryan and his staff, and the other for telephone switchboards and telegraph. The camouflage over the dugout is clearly visible. The photograph was taken on August 20, 1918, by photographer H. Suner and approved by the censor.
