A detachment of the 105th Engineers, formerly detachments of the N. C. Engineers and the 1st N. C. Infantry of the 27th Division, built a footbridge near Corbie, Somme, France. The bridge was constructed in record time as depicted in the photograph taken by Pvt. J. W. Crunelle on January 2, 1919. The image was received and described on November 12, 1918. The caption includes the description number 32996 and the information that it passed the censor. The image is believed to be taken around the war period.
