These 5 men of the Buffs are all privates and are armed with the Martini Henry rifle with spike bayonet attached. They are dressed in a 5 button scarlet frock with buff collars and buff braid on the cuff. Their helmets are stained sand coloured without badges. They are standing guard over three Zulu prisoners outside a tent on the veldt.
