1st Bn, Royal Berkshire Regiment - A black and white digital photograph of soldiers from the battalion training to operate the Bren Carriers, 1941. The trainer Sergeant Ernest William Fereday would deliberately fetch a track off and the men would have to replace it which wasn't easy in rough country conditions. The soldier facing the camera smoking a cigarette is Private Ernie Wotton one of the trainers.
