Do you have the original photograph quiltlady ?

If you have, could you rescan it at 600 or 1200 dpi with no compression, we could possibly have another go at the detail on the uniform ?

Just looking at the piece that he has on his pocket. Is it a negative image of a maple leaf? This looks to me like it could be a Canadian uniform   

Has anyone got any photos of various allies' uniforms in WW2?

I have seen photos with the groom, a soldier wearing a button hole pinned to his uniform. Could this be a Jewish wedding symbol of some kind?

It's not a star of David. To me, it's either a negative maple leaf or a laurel leaf wreath of some kind. Still going through lots of images.
