I found this....
In 1947 the Brecknock Battalion was reconstituted as the 638th (Brecknock) Light Antiaircraft Regiment and based in Brecon. In 1955 the battalion was amalgamated with the 637th (3rd Battlion The Monmouthshire Regiment) Heavy Antiaircraft Regiment to form the new 638th (Brecknockshire and Monmouthshire) Light Antiaircraft Regiment.[1]

and seeing as the man in the photo is from the Abergavenny area I am now leaning toward this at it was a Territorial unit. They must have kept their cap badge for a while or till disbandment.

What do you think ?
