An English lesson in the camp

In front of a row of large tents and a fence with barbed wire, a lean, grey-haired man in spectacles and a dark short-sleeved shirt writes on a dark board propped against a post; the words through, enough and cough stand in chalk, three English spellings that look alike and sound different, while a man in spectacles sits listening in the foreground. The source describes an outdoor class in English for the prisoners and the teacher.
