  • SepiaTown said:
    Like this image.... ...this is not Broadway but 5th Avenue. The reservists are marching northward. Behind them is the east side of 5th Avenue north from the 29th Street intersection (visible on far right). We've mapped it on SepiaTown if you'd like to take a look... www.sepiatown.com/813339/German-Reservists-Marching-on-5t...

Waiting at the barracks door - the Waterford Militia

    As I recall from comments at the image below, the helmet with a ball on top is Artillery. There was an Artillery Barracks in Waterford (now gone) and in this 25" map, I see a passage with steps which matches, at the NE side of the Eastern corner of the barracks buildings, at the spot now occupied by St. Carthage's Avenue.

    E.F. Fraser? = Edward Francis Frazer!

    This has to before 1922, and probably before 1914, too.
  • John A. Coffey said:
    Stripped button down collar shirt, very cool.
  • Rory Sherlock said:
    Could they belong to the Royal Munster Fusiliers? The ball-and-flame collar badge on both uniforms is very like that of the RMF (and also like that of the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers and that of the Grenadier Guards)... They're like the one used by the Royal Artillery too, but they lack the 'UBIQUE' banner at the base.
  • Rory Sherlock said:
    No... having looked at the buttons and helmet more closely, they clearly belong to the Royal Artillery

    artolog: Thank you for making another match with a Gallica image. We will add more details when we update the image description. Interesting to see the differences between the Agence Meurisse and Bain News Service captions.
