Andrew Upton Posted 28 November , 2013 Share Posted 28 November , 2013 Generally thought to be Privates Albert Church & Richard Andrew, 2/20th Londons. The two in the picture shown are Sergeants Sedgewich and Hurcombe, not the two earlier cooks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
