12th Somerset soldiers wearing both SLI and West Somerset Yeomanry cap badges. It is dated Aug 18 so is at the end of the war.
Another good find Alan. Keep them coming.

Devils advocate, are the smaller oval ones definitely WSY badges and not RAMC? Always find colourised images difficult as by its very nature the photo has been touched up.

It would be good to see the original un-doctored image.

Edit: found it https://www.iwm.org.uk/collections/i...ject/205239003

Clearly WSY badges as no crown and different shape can be seen when compared to seated officer’s RAMC collars.
