RA or HAC?
 

This apparently, is one 'Alf Martin' in 1908:

Attachment 47869

I am afraid my knowledge of uniforms from this era is pretty poor, so I am wondering if anyone can please tell me if Alf is with The Royal Artillery, or HAC?

The image os his cap badge is just not good enough for me to see clearly, so hopefully his uniform will pin his unit down.

With thanks,

Peter

RHA
 

Its is RHA as HAC had a 3 colour band on the cap as well as different frogging on the jacket.

Thanks, Colin; appreciate your help.

All the best,

Peter.

Three bands it is Colin, but two colours - red, blue, red.
I guess we all knew what you meant anyway.

Regards,

Thanks gents.

With all due respect to the Artillery, I would have loved this to have been HAC - would have been a great addition to one of my London albums.

Thanks again,

PJ

Oh well Peter, that blew my theory out of the window!!

Phil

Hold the bus, you two! What's going on with these avatars? The Scouts Mafia are ganging up on me :D.

PJ

Just us two being kids, lol. 2 days for somebody to notice isn't bad! :rolleyes:

Phil

Well done PJ. We wondered if anybody would notice.

p.s. Sorry your tent sank when you were a Sea Scout.

It all worked out for the best in the end, John, because I got a job on the submarines...

...as a window cleaner! :D.

lol:D

Were you a sea scout Peter?

I am sorry to say, Phil, that I was not. What John is referring to is my rather clumsy attempt at humour in post #9 here:
