Desmond7 Posted 31 July , 2005 Share Posted 31 July , 2005 Was given picture of group of men by a local gent ... he reckons it was of men from Ulster Div at Newtownards Camp. One man is of particular interest although I don't think he is the VC winner .. if only! However some reasonable cap badge detail. I would say wound stripes would rule out Newtownards camp pre-1915? Some badges look like fusiliers etc ... two water tanks in background .. anyone recognise the scene or who can tell me more. Des Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Morgan Posted 31 July , 2005 Share Posted 31 July , 2005 Des - there is certainly more than a passing similarity between the cigarette card picture of Robert Quigg and the man in the photo. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
