Dressage by Major General WT Carp Part 1.mov

This is the first half of an 8mm home movie of my father demonstrating dressage techniques. This was filmed prior to WWII in The Hague, Holland on an army base that is now closed. My father is riding his favorite horse, Bobbi.

Equitation was great at that time. We lost a lot.

OH Why cut the tail off. Is it military thing.?

[@cjjohnson5311]

The riding is lovely but the lack of a tail is disturbing. I don't get why.

My god how bad is this. Thank god we evolved and got better at riding.
