"Commissariat transport on the road following the advance into Austria. A drink by the wayside" (4 frames). Three bullock-drawn wagons, carrying large barrels, travel to camera on a rough country road. They are escorted by two Serbian soldiers wearing short capes (32). In a high street, four soldiers (in a variety of scruffy uniforms) drink and fill their water canteens from a drinking fountain watched by a boy. Bullock-drawn carts (without barrels) pass in the background (56ft).
