Thanks Tomkin
I wish i had another photo of  him  but I am afraid I do not.
I need to do something with his uniform, his boots and the rest.
I appreciate your effort

Joy some of the markings on his lighter ankle & boot is the word 'To' in the greeting, I didn't know if you wanted that kept or not,  ;)

thanks for your effort. You did a great job. I do not really care about the writing. What I needed was to be able to see Ronald Better. You  managed this

Hi Joy,
          I'm sorry lass, but if you wanted the writing removing, why
didn't you say so? as far as I was concerned it was HIS writing to HIS
Mother. I know that you have it on the original but my crystal ball is
cloudyn at the moment,
Tomkin ;D ;D ;D

I never mentioned the problem of the writing because I just did not think of it. All I wanted was a better pic of him so that I can reproduce it for the family. The original ( the only pic of him) will stay intact.
I cannot dictate to people how they restore a photo because they are doing me a kindness
