Re: Marching soldiers
Looks like pots and or pans under their arms , Gypsies white camos !!
The gates of hell were opened and we accepted the invitation to enter" 26/880 Lance Sgt, Edward Dyke. 26th Bn Northumberland Fusiliers , ( 3rd Tyneside Irish )
1st July 1916
Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings

Re: Marching soldiers
It's obviously a Gazunder Inspection Parade. These were compulsory at pre war training schools.

We shall stick it out to the end, but we are getting weaker of course, and the end cannot be far.

lunch break.
Agree with Harry on this, if you look carefully, they all appear to be carrying eating utensils in their right hands, so I would suggest that this is probably a meal parade.
