Athol photos - 5 September 1916 - horse riding

These two photos show Athol horse riding and a column of Egyptian cavalry. The photos are quite small being about 80mm x 60mm.

Athol is on the left

The notes on the reverse read:

'2Lieut Hanmer and I on ponies

of Egyptian Cavalry. Taken by 2Lt Cruickshank

5.9.16'

There are no notes on the reverse of the photo. However I have grouped these two images together as this appears to show a column of Egyptian Cavalry. The composite force at the Kharga Oasis, Sherika, included Egyptian Cavalry as well as 'A' Flight AFC and other units.
