Guest Lyn Garton Posted 3 July , 2016 Share Posted 3 July , 2016 I have attached a photo of a soldier. Can someone tell me about the badge on his collar. I believe he was from Yorkshire, possibly Middlesbrough if that is of any help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Michelle Young Posted 3 July , 2016 Admin Share Posted 3 July , 2016 Hello Lynn the badges are that of a pioneer. I can't make out his shoulder titles though Michelle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_Baker Posted 3 July , 2016 Share Posted 3 July , 2016 Quite possibly belonged to the 12th (Service) Battalion of the Yorkshire Regiment, which was raised in Middlesbrough and also known as the Tees-side Pioneers.

Guest Lyn Garton Posted 3 July , 2016 Share Posted 3 July , 2016 Thanks for both the replies. I don't know for sure who this man is, only that he may be a distant relative Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
