One officer stands centrally in darker uniform, highlighting rank contrast. The postcard is a genuine real photo print, typical of the early 1900s, printed on AZO paper stock identifiable by the distinctive stamp box on the reverse with four triangles pointing up, a hallmark for dating postcards to 1904-1918.
