Photograph depicts two pictures of soldiers posing for portraits at a very muddy Willows Camp near Victoria B.C. They belong to the Siberian Expeditionary Force. In the first picture, the soldier is wearing a winter forage cap. The second picture offers a good comparison of the two styles of uniform used by the Canadian Expeditionary Forces during the First World War. The first soldier wears the 7-button Canadian pattern jacket that was introduced in 1903 to provide a distinctive uniform to Canadians. This Other Ranks Model 1903 Service Dress Jacket differed from the British counterpart by its tall, stand-up collar, 7 small front buttons and a lack of buttons on the lower front pockets. The second soldier wears the 5-button British pattern.
