Graph of soldiers returning to New Zealand, 1916–19. This graph shows total number of New Zealand soldiers returning to New Zealand (black line), soldiers discharged from NZ forces (green line), soldiers under medical treatment (brown line), and soldiers returned fit for duty (red line). The spikes in the graph indicate when troopships returned.
A note on the graph states ‘monthly balances and returns were not kept previously to Sept 1916: the totals are therefore shown by curves for earlier period’.
