Perhaps the pic has been reversed ?You can just see the pride radiating from this trooper. Great photo. Notice that he has a lance shoe on his left stirrup. Since lances are normally carried on the right side, can we assume that he had a shoe on both sides? I haven't seen this in other photos.
I had to take a second look, but I don’t think so. I‘m guessing there is a lance shoe on both sides, given the photo shows the sabertasche correctly on the left side as well as his KD89. Also his kolpac is correctly on the left side of his busby.Perhaps the pic has been reversed ?
