Part of Ernest Crocker fonds
Photograph depicts two pictures taken of soldiers at Willows Camp during the mobilization of the Canadian Siberian Expeditionary Force (CSEF). They wear cap badges from the Royal Canadian Engineers and wear bandoliers and white lanyards, meaning they were part of a mounted unit. The soldier in the first picture is a sergeant. If notes on the original negative box are correct, this photograph was taken on 29 December 1918, meaning these soldiers belonged to a small group that did not take the voyage to Russia and remained in Victoria until demobilization.
