Allan1892 Posted 9 February Share Posted 9 February He is a Lance Corporal and on the lower left arm he has two wound stripes. With regard to his cap badge, perhaps forum pal @FROGSMILE could assist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think North Staffordshire in this case Michelle, I can see a Prince of Wales feathers on top. He has two vertical wound stripes on his left lower sleeve (one for each occasion that he received wound[s]) and from his dress was almost certainly home on leave at the time of the photograph.
