Hi and welcome to Rootschat...I have asked a moderator to move your post to the Armed Forces Board for a more informed response.

Good evening,

You say you have several photo's, do any others show any badges. The one shown is an 8 pointed star but is too fuzzy to ID. Could be one of several regt's.

Statistically its most likely to be the RASC as they were a huge Corps.
