Thank you.
They are the corps of drums, not the band. One man has a fine display of four good conduct badges [worn inverted to show against the fleur-de-lys arm braid. At least 16 years service. Both band and drums tended to have long-serving soldiers, the band particularly, as it was a reasonably well remunerated and prestigious profession.
Superb group, thank you again.
Edit: says Drums 1911-1912 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
