He does, but I think the profile is too different to the one in my pic.

Votes are about 50% Sid, 50% Walter :-\

Hi
I would say it was Walter Nash.
During WWII he spent quite abit of time as our ambassador in the US.
We were training our air force in Canada for the RAF in Europe.
It's possible the photo might have been taken overseas

I have seen photos  of Sid Holland & it isn't him!!
Cheers

Thanks Berylm

It could well be taken overseas, Dad was based in England most of the war.

Oh no, your Dad is far more handsome!

I found this pic of Walter Nash online and I think the ears look the same as your chap ;)
