Banting in the Yeomanry: A Humorous Moment in Military History (1865) This intriguing photograph captures a lighthearted moment in military history, featuring Sir Frederick Banting, a renowned Canadian scientist and discoverer of insulin, in the uniform of the Yorkshire Imperial Yeomanry Cavalry. The image shows a rotund Troop-Sergeant Major (TSM) Banting, with a disgruntled expression, as he addresses a captain regarding the tight fit of his jacket. The year is 1865, and Banting, who was a part-time soldier in the Yeomanry, has evidently gained some weight since his last fitting. The captain, attired in his own military uniform, listens intently as Banting voices his concerns, trying to hide a smirk. The scene takes place in a military camp, where soldiers are preparing for drills and inspections. The vintage costumes, complete with brass buttons, shiny belts, and high collars, add to the authenticity of the image. The photograph offers a unique glimpse into the daily life of soldiers during this era, demonstrating that even military personnel faced the challenges of clothing that no longer fit as they once did. This photograph is a testament to the human side of history, showcasing the camaraderie and humor that existed among soldiers, even during their training and service. It also highlights the importance of understanding the historical context of images, as they often reveal unexpected stories and insights into the lives of individuals who shaped history.
