It does appear to be a Gordon title on the stretcher bearer. I can't see a badge at all on the officer, only what appears to be a square patch with perhaps some mud spots on it.

SB is a Gordon and I think that the officer is too. The patch on his bonnet is a square of regimental tartan. As the SB is a Gordon the tents in the background suggest that the photo was very likely taken at the battalion RAP, the first port of call in the casualty treatment and evacuation chain.
