The fellow on the viewer's left (in the pic) is wearing standard Canadian issue BDU. The other two are out of uniform, and when an NCO sees that they will be in deep dung.

I have no idea where you found that, but it's priceless.

"(The news report said the brightly knickered soldier was a guy.)"

I don't believe it. Look at the slender arms and legs. The flip-flops, the short stature. That's either a kid or a petite young woman.
