Photo probably dates from November 1910. The November 14th edition of the NY Times describes the National Horse Show Association in Madison Square Garden, and notes the presence of foreign officers including: Colonel P. A. Kenna, VC; Lieutenants Geoffrey Brooke and C. F. Walwyn of the Royal Horse Artillery; and Lieutenant Walter Brooke of the Yorkshire Light Artillery. See query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?_r=1&res=9903E...

Appreciate your help! We'll update the description with fuller names from the negative and reference to the horse show event.

From fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bailleul_(Nord) "Bailleul, située non loin de Cassel où Foch avait établi son quartier général, fut complètement détruite en 1918 par les Alliés, avec l'appui de l'aviation britannique qui cherchait à chasser l'ennemi qui avait pris la ville." Translation by google: Bailleul, located near Cassel where Foch had established his headquarters, was completely destroyed in 1918 by the Allies, with the support of the British air force that sought to drive out the enemy who had taken the city.
