Original Caption
Kenneth Horwood (first on the left in the second row) as a young RCMP constable aboard the S.S. Scythia, which took the officers and their horses from Quebec City to Southampton, England for Queen Elizabeth II's coronation in June 1953

Robert Simmonds is in the lower left hand corner.
The ship is misidentified as Kenneth Horwood and 10 other RCMP officers went to England on the SS Beaverburn, but returned on the MV Georgic with the majority of the RCMP contingent. Thus this photo would be taken on the MV Georgic, not the RMS Scythia.
