The second image I looked at - the first of the 8sqn RFC is captioned as the Sergeant Observer when in actual fact he has the 2 'pips' of Lieutenant on each Epaulette (shoulder) - the blue inverted chevrons at the bottom of his sleeve will be War Service Chevrons (3 = 3 years ?)

Other than that - lovely pictures - love the little Barclay 'Pug' steam engine :)

Lovely!

Very nice turnout, wish I was there!

Spied the Defiant in one of the shots.
