Post Update
Further to my post of yesterday, I am attaching a photo of my paternal grandfather (James William B., known as "Bill") and his older brother, my great uncle (Charles Clinton B., known as "Chuck" or "Charlie") in their cadet uniforms. My grandfather Bill is on the left of the photo. This is before WW I.
Apologies for the photo, as I do not have the original. It is a photo of a photocopied picture in a privately produced family history.
