BabaAndrew Posted 13 February , 2020 Share Posted 13 February , 2020 I would be most grateful if anyone could shed light on the identity of this gent. Looking at his epaulettes, he was evidently a Major-General. I have reason to believe that the photo was taken in the Middle East. Any help appreciated!

With no clues on the postcard itself, only what looks like Arabic script on one corner of the photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDWARD1 Posted 14 February , 2020 Share Posted 14 February , 2020 Thanks for your comments. I used Bing & Cortana digital search facility to find the pic. I have tried a few WIT without using the digital search trawling through many books.I feel It would not be in the spirit of the game to use Bing or Cortana in WIT.
