Guest MrHicks Posted 23 October , 2007 Share Posted 23 October , 2007 The East African Mounted Rifles had an epaulet with the letters 'EAMR'. Does anyone know the colour, font, material etc? Old photographs also show the 'MR' letters on the pudgeree band of the pith helmet. Any information on these matters, and indeed anything regarding the EAMR unforms (or lack thereof) would be greatly appreciated. I have the EAMR book by C.J. Wilson as well as the Osprey "Armies in East Africa", but still no answers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bushfighter Posted 23 October , 2007 Share Posted 23 October , 2007 Jambo Above is an image of what looks like the "Bowker's Horse" Squadron, EAMR. Take a look at: http://1914-1918.invisionzone.com/forums/i...st&p=750466 to see more uniform & equipment detail. These images are believed to have been taken at Longido West.
