There is an inscription (on the reverse and not in Spencer's hand) indicating that the present idea for Kit Inspection, is the preliminary working drawing for the scene. The oil painting of this subject is at the Sandham Memorial Chapel, Burghclere and is recorded by K. Bell (op. cit.) as no.130k. The soldier with the undone puttee also relates to the Sandham Memorial Chapel at Burghclere; the finished oil version of this figure appears in the centre of the east wall of the chapel, The Resurrection of Soldiers (National Trust), 1928-29, (Bell 130h).
