Presumably this picture portrays a Cadet Unit but which one?

Not sure if its a cadet unit as young men who were not old enough to be called up were allowed to join the LDV/HG and he is wearing both an LDV armband and a signals qualification badge.

Just my observation,

Terry

Perhaps better worded as a Cadet also serving in the Home Guard. The uniform looks OTC/CCF to me. I was also looking at the rifle proficiency badge latterly worn by cadets.

The collar badges have the appearance of Beaumont College OTC to me.
