  • Short Summary

    Soldiers of the 9th Lancers during sports day at Tidworth.

  • Description

    The Famous 9th Lancers who charged the guns at Le Cateau, hold their regiment sports at Tidworth - 1916.

    Soldiers on horseback in some sort of game where they all hug each other, hug the necks of their horses and jam in together in a circle. Perhaps they are trying to force each other off their horses?

    Soldiers ride past a large dummy hanging up and stick their poles in it. Then the same thing with a dummy on the ground.
