Photo of artillerymen to identify 1917

[Richard Deziel]

Hello,

 

I'm sorry I don't speak Russian. I collect photos of the Russian army of 1914-17.

 

I would need your help to correctly identify this photo..

It depicts a Bombardier Layer (Bombardir-navodchik) standing left and three Gunners (Kananir) from the 3rd Horse-Artillery batterie. - 1917

 

The longitudinal strip on the shoulder strap indicates the qualifications of Gun Layer. If I understand correctly, these four Gunners were all Gun Layer?

 

Is it possible to know if it is indeed the 3rd Horse-Artillery batterie or the 3rd Horse-Artillery Division?

 

Thanks

Is it possible to know if it is indeed the 3rd Horse-Artillery batterie or the 3rd Horse-Artillery Division? Or perhaps they are dismounted :Lancers used as trench artillerymen.

 

Thanks
