Scope & content
Item consists of page 57 of the Boyd photograph album. There are nine photographs on the page, which are captioned as follows: 13022, 13023, 13024 - Riding on level ground, keeping their proper distance apart is easy compared with trying it with untrained horses when going down a steep hill; 13025, 13026 - Silhouettes on the hillside. Artillerymen coming over the rim of a hill on a scouting trip; 13027 - Cyclists in a grove firing on an attacking force; 13028 - Cyclists capture other cyclists. Those with caps reversed are prisoners of war; 13030, 13031 - Capturing a position, or charging the enemy where there is open ground and no cover, is done in a series of dashes. A spurt of 100 yards or so, drop flat, fire a volley, up and at it again.
