Original - I incorrectly identify the regimental symbol as the very similar looking Leicestershire regiment in that imgur post, it is in fact the Hampshire regiment, sorry about that.

This has always been one of my favorite WWII pictures, seeing it in color is just amazing

Damn i never realized or noticed how long a bayonet actually is. I thought they were a lot shorter for close range.
