Bathe Posted 20 September , 2011 Share Posted 20 September , 2011 Found in a box of family photos were several of soldiers who have not been recognised as members of the family to have served. Can anyone help with the cap badges which will be a step towards identifying the men. Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Owl Posted 20 September , 2011 Share Posted 20 September , 2011 Hi S.B., Looking at the enlargement first--this seems to be Royal Fusiliers. The right hand top could be A.S.C. and the other two I cannot say!! any chance of enlarging the three smaller pics? Robert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bathe Posted 20 September , 2011 Author Share Posted 20 September , 2011 Thanks for the pointers so far. I don't have the original photos, I'm working from scans, so cropping close to the badges may not help ... ... in fact it didn't and to blow them up makes the file sizes too great to put in one post, so there are now three: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bathe Posted 20 September , 2011 Author Share Posted 20 September , 2011 This is the one that might be ASC This is the final one: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saberhagen427 Posted 20 September , 2011 Share Posted 20 September , 2011 I thought ASC at first but his shoulder titles look like they could be curved at the bottom and I'm pretty sure there's a T for territorial at the top. Other possibilities for the cap badge are Bedfordshire, Devonshire or Hampshire but it's too fuzzy to be sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Owl Posted 20 September , 2011 Share Posted 20 September , 2011 Most likely Devons out of these three. The last enlargement could be Warwickshire Yeomanry? Not at all sure about the other one---too fuzzy!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bathe Posted 22 September , 2011 Author Share Posted 22 September , 2011 Thanks chaps for all your efforts. I shall go back to the source and see if we can get better scans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
