Hi,

The picture attached is of the Scottish Horse. It is from the 1940 book "The Scottish Horse 1900-1940" by Katharine Marjory Murray (Duchess of Atholl). It shows a group of officers and sergeants prior to departure to SA, in early 1901.

My question is - what is the uniform of the guy in the middle - why is it different?

I would be very grateful for any ideas.
