Fife and Drum group marches; followed by soldiers marching with rifles and bayonets; but not wearing jackets; just T-shirts. Next; a race is run as in a track meet; the runners rounding curve; toward camera. CU group of 6 or 7 men in uniforms; mostly British Army; but a few others; 2 are writing something. Another race. Cool sort of spooky shot of soldier in FG; facing away toward lots of smoke coming from smoke bombs on the ground; pan left; guys with gas masks and rifles emerge from the smoke; then turn and go back in; while 2 other soldiers stand looking. CU the Viscount talking to Army man. World War One era. | |
