Admin Michelle Young Posted 7 June , 2019 Admin Share Posted 7 June , 2019 I’m only looking at the image on my phone, but possibly Devonshire Regiment? Michelle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alison Farrer Posted 7 June , 2019 Author Share Posted 7 June , 2019 Hi Michelle...more likely to be a Scottish Regiment but certainly will give this due consideration. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jools mckenna Posted 7 June , 2019 Share Posted 7 June , 2019 (edited) ASC? (The man with 2 wound strips and Good conduct chevron definitely looks like ASC) Edited 7 June , 2019 by Jools mckenna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Michelle Young Posted 7 June , 2019 Admin Share Posted 7 June , 2019 I assume that you say that as it’s a family member who cane from Scotland? Doesn’t always follow that they served in a local regiment. Do you have a name? Michelle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Garrett Posted 7 June , 2019 Share Posted 7 June , 2019 A closer image of the cap badge would help, please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FROGSMILE Posted 7 June , 2019 Share Posted 7 June , 2019 (edited) Star shaped badge of those dimensions, short but large letter shoulder titles, and 03 pattern equipment waist-belts suggests that they are almost certainly Army Service Corps. There were ASC units all over Britain, including Scotland, as well as Ireland. Edited 7 June , 2019 by FROGSMILE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alison Farrer Posted 7 June , 2019 Author Share Posted 7 June , 2019 His name was John Russell from Ayrshire. I have attempted to get a closer picture of the badge but it is not clear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragoon Posted 7 June , 2019 Share Posted 7 June , 2019 I agree FROGSMILE, they all have short block shoulder titles as well, the L/CPL in the front you can make out the C in ASC Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Atkins Posted 8 June , 2019 Share Posted 8 June , 2019 Another vote for ASC for me. In the enlarged portion there's what I thought was another badge (man on the left), but on consideration I think it's probably just a distortion of light on the ASC badge.
