In the foreground you can see the 'lemon squeezer' hat on the head of the New Zealand military man - 'lemon squeezer' being the nickname for the New Zealand army cap and up above, overlooking the ceremony is the woman from Mesen who had the best view around ...

Happy to have made you laugh ...

'Pathetic' ... I think not but the hat does look like the top of the plastic lemon squeezers we had back home. They gave them the name way back in WW1
