I know he was a Sargent in the Army Educational Corps in 1929 and these other 2 photos must be from that time, but the cap badge is different to the one in my original photo.
Hello Karen,
The first picture is indeed the cap badge of the Army Educational Corp, they were formed in 1920 and the title changed to include Royal along with a badge change in 1946, I’m guessing the second picture shows him and his “ pupils”
