Scope and content
Photograph depicts two soldiers of the Canadian Siberian Expeditionary Force at Willows Camp, November 1918. The photograph offers a good comparison of the two styles of uniform used by the Canadian Expeditionary Forces during the First World War. In the first picture, the first soldier wears the British Pattern 5 button jacket which was brought as the standard near the end of the war. Next to him, a corporal 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.
