Title: Help identifing Date of London Rangers Image from Flicker
Post by: hllawson on Wednesday 14 October 20 13:46 BST (UK)

Hello again you fabulous Roots Chatter crew.

Back on the trail for finding a Photo of my Great grandfather I've found this image of the London 12th battalion on Flicker. It's a long shot but hoping he might be in it.... somewhere...

Can anyone give me a rough date for the Image. He was with them 1915-1917.

Many thanks for your time and efforts in advance.

Sorry, I can't help with a date but it was starting to drop out of sight so now those who can help might  see it.
Cheers,
Peter

They're all wearing the 1902 pattern tunic, this changed slightly to the economy tunic in 1916 so before that.
Whether this is pre war is impossible to say.
I notice the different cap badges so not all from the Rangers.
In fact I'm sure any of them are.
