Mystery Army Photo - Uniform lookup?
« on: Tuesday 25 December 12 23:54 GMT (UK) »
Hi,

I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on this photo or whether it's of use to anyone? I found a suitcase full of old photos in a family attic this Christmas but no-one knows the significance of this photo. Any information that can be gleaned from it would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Looks like Royal Air Force, not sure of the period, probably WW2 onwards
