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.

Assuming that the one on the left is a local kid.

Actually, after finding out on a TV show tonight what was actually going on in that pic, I'd say this should be the caption:

"Soldier relieved OF duty or relieves self ON duty?"

Genie

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

"(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.
