My uncle Sid looks almost naked compared to the squaddies in your pic! Is it a modern re-enactment of a WW1 scenario? The Lewis gun looks very 'Great War'. [my grandfather was a Lewis gunner in 1917/18]
And whats that around the officers neck???

Yep that is an educative day at the Chiltern Open Air Museum earlier this year...
One more charge and then be dumb,
            When the forts of Folly fall,
        May the victors when they come
            Find my body near the wall.
