Very Rare Photograph - Coloured Soldiers Union of South Africa

Location - Kimberley based on Charles Leonard impression below photograph.

 

This photo graph has been in my possession for 30 years - I believe there is a link with

the Cape Corps as the photograph was given to me by someone related to the Cape Corps

Officer very similar in stature of Gen Smuts in centre of Photograph????? 

Speculations:

Cape Corps Soldiers

1915 /1916 Cape Corps 1st & 2nd Battalion / Cape Corps  disbanded in 1918 , but for WWII Cape Corps was reconstituted 8 May 1940

1st South African Mounted Riflemen (1913 - €“26)

Native Military Corps

King`s African (mounted)Riflemen
