I have just noticed this same photograph on page 103 of Rick Grebert's book "The Australian Army Slouch Hat and Rising Sun Badge"
The caption reads, "Private J. B. MILLS in his Coronation Contingent uniform of 1902 (with the second pattern Rising Sun collar badge). He served with the Second Western Australian Mounted Infantry in the Boer War and was killed at Gallipoli on 31st May, 1915."
