All of these photo's are with thanks to "Soldiers of the Queen", which is possibly one of the best photographic uniform sites on the net.

I'll trawl around for other Boer War photo's. Another good source for period uniforms is the Fosten Brothers "The Thin Red Line", which is full of coloured plates following the evolvement of British Army uniforms.
