A vintage gelatin silver photograph (visible image size approximately 178 × 1408 mm), matted and behind glass in a period-style moulded wooden frame (external dimensions an impressive 330 × 1565 mm).

'In the pre-war period, an officer or NCO seeking to become an instructor would have attended a six-week preliminary course at a Command gymnasium followed by an intensive and wide-ranging four-month course . at the HQ School Aldershot; this in turn was followed by a three-month probationary period back in his unit before fully qualifying as an instructor. September 1914, however, witnessed a dramatic truncation . the pressure to dispatch [the men] to units to begin physical and bayonet training meant the AI Course at HQ Aldershot was cut to 21 days . These HQ courses would run for the duration of the war, with the numbers of trainees in each class soon raised from just under 200 to 500' (Nikolai Bogdnovic: 'Fit to Fight - A History of the Royal Army Physical Training Corps, 1860-2015', Bloomsbury, 2017). Bogdnovic makes clear that these courses included Territorials and Commonwealth Dominion troops (Canadians, New Zealanders, Indians and Australians), and later, Americans as well.
