I should have asked earlier.
1.) Which speedlight are you using fort fill?
2.) This looks like a WW2 US Army 75-mm Pack Howitzer M8, but I do not recognize the uniforms. Enlighten us, please.

There was no fill flash at all. It was taken at 1/1000th sec @ f/5.0, ISO 200, 70-200mm lens at 100mm, about 12:42 pm on a very bright day. The uniforms were another story. Although it is an American weapon, the re-enactors were dressed in Russian uniforms. Don't ask me why, 'cause I don't know.

Then I speculate that the shadows were light-filled by the warm-toned gunflash, changing the lighting ration from 4:1 (normal noon sunlight) to near 2:1 lighting ratio. Excellent timing.
