joanne.rees1 Posted 17 January , 2021 Share Posted 17 January , 2021 I know it is not a good photo, but can any one suggest which regiment this lad was in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FROGSMILE Posted 17 January , 2021 Share Posted 17 January , 2021 (edited) I think probably the Duke of Cornwall’s Light Infantry. It’s a very tough call because of distortion of the image but I’m swayed a bit by what also seems to be a two-piece shoulder title on his shoulder straps, which corroborates matters.

I couldn't understand why the badge appears to be thicker on the left, It’s the common effect of the mouth of the bugle horn Joanne and common to all light Infantry regiments, and the ancillary insignia of some rifle regiments too.
