The different types of pith helmet worn by the cavalry is interesting.
He that trades Liberty for Security will soon find that he has neither.

British prisoners captired by Boers, staged for the camera..

Staged refight, British uniforms might be of interest though..

In the second video I am pleased to see several mounted Boers wearing white or light-colored slouch hats.  My buddy Ben painted my Boers with a couple of light hats and until now I had always thought he made a mistake, and that the Boer hats should have all been dark colored. 

Great, thanks for posting these.
