DescriptionFCP World War I horses 1915.jpg |
Postcard photo of soldiers and horses during World War I. The postcard is postmarked 1915. The photographer was Fred C. Palmer of Tower Studio, Herne Bay, Kent. He lived there 1903-1922, and is believed to have died 1936-1939. The soldiers based closest to Palmer's studio in 1914-1915 were The Buffs, (East Kent Regiment), which raised nine battalions in World War I. (Today the Buffs are amalgamated into the Princess of Wales's Royal Regiment.) NB: This print had faded, and I have improved the contrast a little. Points of interest: note the jodhpurs, puttees and spurs on the two cavalrymen, and the well-groomed horses. Border |
