Seager1923 Posted 26 July , 2019 Share Posted 26 July , 2019 Hello, I was wondering if anyone would be able to help me with the attached picture. My Great Grandfather, Captain Kirton Ivor Seager Smith, is the man on the far left and I was interested in any further information anyone could provide with regards to the other people in the picture. I noticed the nurse on the right appears to have a medal attached to her cape? Thank you in advance, Fay Brown x Link to post Share on other sites
EDWARD1 Posted 26 July , 2019 Share Posted 26 July , 2019 Looks like QAIMNS, Queen Alexandra`s Imperial Military Nursing Service Link to post Share on other sites
alf mcm Posted 26 July , 2019 Share Posted 26 July , 2019 The nurse on the right is wearing the silver service badge of the QAIMNS on the ribbon. The other nurse appears to be Nursing Sister of the T.F.N.S. {Territorial Forces Nursing Services}. She has a small silver letter 'T' on the corner of her cape,and there would be a TFNS service badge on a ribbon {just visible} on the other side of her cape. Do you have a date for this photograph?

Seager1923 Posted 26 July , 2019 Author Share Posted 26 July , 2019 Thank you so much! That's fascinating! I think this may have been taken around 1917? Link to post Share on other sites
Gardenerbill Posted 26 July , 2019 Share Posted 26 July , 2019 (edited) The officer centre front has 2 pips and a stripe on his cuff so a Lieutenant. The officer on the right has what looks like an other ranks gor blimey hat. Edited 26 July , 2019 by Gardenerbill Link to post Share on other sites
