Oooh! Good effort Millymcb!!!

Shame we still cant get the detail though....
One more charge and then be dumb,
            When the forts of Folly fall,
        May the victors when they come
            Find my body near the wall.

Bummer....

Sorry...Can't even make out the model of the bayonet he has...

Well....we do know mid 1920s/early thirties latest...Middle East/India.

Have you any ephemera around that may point to where he served??? Or perhaps you could contact Kentigern House to get his records....£30 I know...but would answer some questions...
