breame1 Posted 13 August , 2019 Share Posted 13 August , 2019 I'm not sure of the year, but I know this is probably during WW1. Kind regards, J West Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jay dubaya Posted 13 August , 2019 Share Posted 13 August , 2019 The 7 button Canadian pattern tunic and Canada collar badges, can’t quite make out the cap badge as it looks to have been blackened but he looks to be dressed for mounted duties.

Acknown Posted 13 August , 2019 Share Posted 13 August , 2019 Hard to identify which unit, although the collar badge is fairly clear. It's probably somewhere in this lot. https://www.britishbadgeforum.com/canadian_expeditionary_force/cef_index.htm. Do you have any other details? Name? Where did you get it? Anything written on the back? Acknown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave1418 Posted 13 August , 2019 Share Posted 13 August , 2019 Hi the bandolier is of a rather unusual pattern, not 01 or 03 variety as the leather closing tabs are stitched tithe top of the flap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
