Which regiment?
Hi everyone.
I have a photograph of my great grandfather in his ww1 army uniform but I don't know which batallion or regiment it is he's in. Can anyone tell me? I can't find the cap badge on any photos. He was born in 1899 & from Leeds in Yorkshire and thought it might be King's Own Yorkshire light infantry but I don't think it matches the cap badges. Thanks Tracey |

Hello Tracey, welcome to the forum, your correct it’s not the Kings Own Yorkshire Light Infantry, it looks to me to be the cap badge of the Northern Cyclist Battalion, I’m sure others will add to this with a definite confirmation.

Northern Cyclist Battalion?

It certainly looks that way. The s/t would also suggest that, although it appears to me that it's either T/CYCLIST or perhaps T/NORTHERN with the bottom tier clipped off?

I can see T/CYCLIST/NORTHERN, the full title.
