Eton Troop 1900


The Eton Troop of the Earl of Chester’s Yeomanry parade at their annual July camp. The figure in the foreground is an officer, identifiable by the white horsehair throat plume in his charger. He also has shoulder chains which the other ranks do not. Another officer walks with a stick under his arm. All ranks wear the slouch hat apart from the mounted man talking to the officer whose pill-box cap indicates that he is from a different unit.
