Tatyana Tamm kindly has supplied a number of photographs of the Displaced Persons sent to work at Bangham, South Australia, for the South Australian Railways.
Of course, we no longer know who is in them. I you recognise anyone, please contact us through the General Stuart Heintzelman/First Transport Facebook group or comment below.
Double click on the photos to view enlargements.

| This June 1948 photo may well include Displaced Persons who arrived on 3 later transports (the name they gave to the ships bringing them to Australia, since the first 4 were United States Army Transports); identification may be easier using the enlargement below |
 |
| Note that these men seem be about to be transported on a flat rail wagon with no sides and, as the sign says, No Hand Brake — good luck is needed urgently |
 |
| Are these Bangham men cooking up something, or doing the laundry? |
 |
| Bath time at Bangham |
 |
| Another June 1948 photo: is this group about to board more transport to work, at least with sides this time? |
 |
| And another June 1948 photo: do your recognise anyone? |
