Summary
Extract from Edward Ardizzone, 'Baggage to the Enemy', John Murray (1941) p. 4-5: 'The streets of course, were filled
with soldiers, and officers made up for their drab khaki by their brilliant forage caps, black and red for the artillery, scarlet for the
cavalry, black and gold, lilac, green and a host of colours which I did not know the significance.
image: A carictaure of five officers looking at each other at close proximity. They are all wearing different caps. There
