OK, I'm both curious and uninformed. Who's this character with what looks (to silly me) like a Yank hat, "Montana peak" style?

BAR, I did mention the good old days ... 100 years ago things were decidedly different; static trench warfare certainly lent itself to such. Note the hobnails in the boots, looks like web slings unchanged almost to tdoay, some more resting left middle background.

"...a Yank hat..." Troopies in the trenches wore whatever was easy to come by. Something about there being a war on. snicker. That hat is too high to be an American campaign hat.
Spelling and Grammar count!

Forgive me if I'm saying something really stupid, but couldn't it be a Kiwi 'Lemon Squeezer' hat?
I just checked a picture on the New Zealand army museum web site & it ain't a million miles away from the example shown there.

Beat me to it Roger. My money is on the NZ 'Lemon Squeezer'.
