We spent a good hour last night so much to see foul weather covers as well as caps. The sgt at the front has some sort of armband. Swords look like 1898 patten theres another pic dated 1904 with the same sgt as rough rider

A fascinating photo....I do have to say they look rather un-British with those Czapkas; dare I say Hun-ish
