Carpenter Richard Helad, portraying a Lance Corporal of the Queen's Own Royal West Kent Living History Group, participates in a mock WWI battle at the Colchester Military Tournament in Colchester, eastern England July 5, 2014. Helad's interest in re-enacting was sparked by visiting a historical military show with his son, he started buying military uniform and equipment and became more involved in the group. He feels it is important to keep the memory alive of those who died and to educate people about how the war changed the social history of the country, including securing the vote for women and opening up opportunities for them in the workplace.
