Place: Sherwood Foresters (Nottinghamshire & Derbyshire Regiment) Army Training Camp
Property / Street / Road: Dunstable, camp.
Date: 1915
Description/Historical Information: Young soldier at attention, holding a bayoneted rifle - probably a SMLE as the bayonet does not look quite as long as the bayonets on the new Japanese Rifles that had been issued. Other soldiers are watching. The shadow of the photographer can be seen on the ground beside the soldier.
