While Capt Tocher was RAMC, all of his "party" were members of the Newfoundland Regiment (the same as the regimental medical orderlies and stretcher bearers of every other battalion in the British Army).

The sergeant on the far right of the group is Sgt. Arthur Hammond (Regt #79).

I recall having seen (on-line) a copy of the photo that has (pencilled in either the margin or on the back) all the names. I thought that it was among some of the material in the Charles Sydney Frost Collection found at the Memorial University of Newfoundland archives. So far, going through the photo album and scrapbook #1, I haven't found it.
