The guy on the left appears to be wearing spurs.
This is consistent with the cross belt he is wearing and making it likely that he was a driver in the Royal Australian Artillery.

I’m in the process of researching my family history and believe Tom Grainger is my great grandfather.
Would you happen to have any further information on him?

Sorry I missed this last week. Absolutely, I am a descendant too and happy to share info. I think as a new user of Rootschat you might need to make a small number of posts before private messaging is available to you, once it is I'll send you my email address. Tom died in a tragic accident during the Depression in 1931. He was unemployed and hawking from a road cart when he was hit by a car and died of his injuries.
