CEF troop w/ Ross rifles

[RangeRover]

Posted on rossrifle.com, too, but these images are part of the collection of images at the Canadian Great War Project website: http://www.canadiangreatwarproject.com and show CEF troops w/ Ross rifles. I checked with the administrator of that site and he's fine with the images being posted[thank you]. There are a number of other photos featuring Ross Rifles there besides these ones, but these show the rifles most clearly. The photo cutlines are also from the Canadian Great War Project site.
