The private walking towards him is a man of long service as shown by his the good conduct stripes on his left sleeve, and medals. He also had a marksman's badge above the stripes. The caplines, when not attached to a busby come around under the left arm and hook up to a button. He has the crimson forage cap which replaced the pillbox cap c1899. His tight-fitting trousers are for dismounted duties and are worn with ankle boots and spurs. To complete the walking out order he carries a riding whip which gives him an officer-like appearance.
