Buglers_0021.jpg

...here are a couple of sepia photos from my collection...one shows an AIF Officer wearing a skill-at-arms badge: Bomber - quite likely an instructor at an Army/Corps bombing school...would be interested if anybody has photos of officers wearing this, or other, trade badges...the second photo shows a bunch of 3rd Div. buglers, some of which are wearing the (worsted) double powder-horn as identification...this item was a British Light Infantry senior NCO item so it is here being worn for a purpose for which it was never intended...the Corporal, and a couple of others, are wearing the correct (metal) double bugler's badge - shows how non-regulation members of the AIF could often be...
