terryd Posted 23 May , 2018 Share Posted 23 May , 2018 After success in locating photographs of Lt Cols Morter and Sheppard from my earlier post under the title "275 Brigade RFA Commanding Officers" this post concentrates on the above, in the hope that Cotter's name in the title results in the emergence of his photo. I would then be able to show photos of all WW1 COs in my presentation about 275 Bgde. to the WFA in Lancaster on 2 July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie962 Posted 23 May , 2018 Share Posted 23 May , 2018 (edited) can I suggest putting RFA in the title to attract rflory ? Incidentally did you see this fascinating old thread about naming of the Cotter Crater ? Edited 23 May , 2018 by charlie962 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was commissioned into the RGA and commanded a Heavy Artillery Group during the Great War. That said, he also commanded an RFA battery and two RFA brigades. Unfortunately I have been unable to locate a photo of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
