Default Australian Commonwealth Horse

Here's an interesting picture of a member of the Australian Commonwealth Horse in full dress uniform.

Enjoy!

He is wearing second pattern collar badges so that rather implies the photo was taken post 1902 .

He appears to have had earlier service in Africa, though, as he is appears to be wearing a Queens SA medal.

I am not sure what the other medal is.....the first one.

Great photo, eh!
