Thanks for that.

It is just possible that one of the men in the photo is my great uncle, my grandfathers oldest brother.

Of course, given the size of a battalion, the odds are against it. In any event, I have never seen a photo of him anyway.

He was born in 1879- and was a regular soldier. I have not yet found him in the 1901 census. However, by the time of the 1911 census was a sergeant in 2nd Royal West Kents in India.
