    How about 28 December 1922 ? This via Trove -

    "... LONDON, Dec. 28. The English army of occupation has left Ireland. The most vivid Celtic imagination never guessed at the scenes which accompanied the embarkation. As the regiments marched to the Dublin Docks they were cheered continually. Women rushed to kiss officers and men alike. Everyone seemed to be waving a tiny Union Jack and shouting "Come back soon." The crowd was so dense that the troops had to abandon all idea of military formation, and struggled through to the dock gates in single file. The ships in the river added to the confusion by sounding sirens and fog-horn. It really seemed that the departure of the hated army of occupation must be the arrival of a long-desired relief column, for nothing like the enthusiasm displayed has been seen since the little British army marched through Belgium after the armistice in November 1918.
    The grim irony of the situation was heightened by the fact that the Sinn Fein governors of Ireland, from Mr. Cosgrave downwards, are living in daily dread of death. ... ..."

    "Aleksey Nikolayevich Kuropatkin (Russian: Алексе́й Никола́евич Куропа́ткин; March 29, 1848 – January 16, 1925) served as the Russian Imperial Minister of War from January 1898 to February 1904 and as a field commander subsequently. Historians often hold him responsible for major Russian defeats in the Russo-Japanese War of 1904 to 1905, most notably at the Battle of Mukden (1905) and at the Battle of Liaoyang (August-September 1904)."

    "In 1898, Kuropatkin was recalled to St. Petersburg and appointed War Minister. His first priority was of improving the command structure of the army, as well as the living conditions of its officers. His reforms included measures to rejuvenate the army by setting age limits for line officers and candidates for higher office, and by increasing the period of secondment of officers from the General Staff to combat units. He attempted to improve the quality of officers by raising the two-year cadet training program to three years, and by opening seven new cadet schools. He also increased the frequency of training maneuvers. ..."

    The caption, 7th regiment departs, is copied incorrectly from the negative. Taken at about the same place as Band of 71st N.Y. (LOC)

    The 71st on June 27, 1916, at the end of their march to the N.Y. Central railyards at 60th and West End Avenue. This is taken from the west side of West End and the intersection at center is 61st Street. See notes under Band of 71st N.Y. (LOC)
