Jo, another great photo. Thanks for posting.
I notice Lieutenant Comper is wearing British BD with a CANADA badge. I'm wondering if the background colour of the CANADA badge is in the British BD colour or the greener Canadian hue. I also noted the ribbon at the base of the epaulette.
I can't understand why there would be a CANLOAN reunion before the war ended, but I guess they had their reasons.
Cheers,
Dan.
