findabetterole Posted 15 March , 2009 Share Posted 15 March , 2009 Dave... its not the Manchesters. I'd say the Gloucesters. Seph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auchonvillerssomme Posted 15 March , 2009 Share Posted 15 March , 2009 When I first looked at it, looks like sphinx over scroll...... Lincolnshire Regiment. Mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Broomfield Posted 15 March , 2009 Share Posted 15 March , 2009 Difficult to say either way, but the size looks Gloster-ish, and the coloured patch on the sleeve migth be the system used by the 61st Division, possibly. What is he doing, BTW? Wrong uniform entirely for a Highland Fling, I'd have thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

certacito79 Posted 15 March , 2009 Share Posted 15 March , 2009 The architecture is interesting ... I'm far from expert on this ... East Anglia? From the look of the buildings I would say North Norfolk, maybe billeted for Coatal Defences (SO probably territiorial) Just a Guess John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CT-Guards Posted 18 March , 2009 Share Posted 18 March , 2009 Any chance of close uou of the left sleeve and cap insignia. (poss sphinx on the badge I'd say). Is he doing some sort of Irish Jig! regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
